Deputy President Kithure Kindiki has urged the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) to remain impartial and resist intimidation from politicians ahead of the August 2027 elections.

• DP Kindiki stressed that the IEBC should discharge its duties without favouring any political side, including the government.
• He advised the opposition to focus on presenting their agenda to Kenyans rather than attacking the electoral body, suggesting they may be "sensing defeat."
• The DP highlighted the government's confidence in the IEBC to conduct free, fair, and verifiable elections, emphasizing that President Ruto's development record will secure his re-election.
