Former Trade Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria has criticized the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) following a viral video threatening former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua ahead of his November 16 visit to Mbeere North for a by-election campaign.

• Kuria questioned IEBC's fairness, stating he had previously warned the commission about potential hostility in Mbeere North, an issue he argues was ignored.
• The video depicted individuals threatening Gachagua, with one voice warning him not to bring his wife, Pastor Dorcas Rigathi.
• The Mbeere North seat became vacant after former MP Geoffrey Ruku was appointed Cabinet Secretary for Public Service, leading to a by-election where Gachagua's Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP) is backing the Democratic Party candidate.
