The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission has announced Tuesday 8th of August 2017 as the date for the next General Election. The Commission says the date is in line with the Constitution and preparations for the exercise are already underway. Consequently the Commission targets to register 8 million new voters before the set date. Addressing the press on Thursday, IEBC chairperson Isack Hassan said there will be a mass voter registration starting 15th February next year. The 1 month long exercise targets to register 4 million new voters. By Ronclif Odit.
