The People's Empowerment Party (PEP) has endorsed the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission's (IEBC) plan to implement the Election Campaign Financing Act, believing it will bring integrity and fairness to Kenya's elections.

• The party submitted a memorandum to the IEBC, emphasizing the Act's importance in curbing financial influence in politics and making elections more accessible.
• Key advocate: PEP party leader, Stephen Mwakesi, highlighted concerns over sharply rising campaign spending, citing Sh5 million audit threshold as a burden for smaller parties.
• Proposed reforms include harmonizing spending limit calculations, closing "proxy spending loopholes," and establishing a searchable public database for campaign finance reports.
