Lawyers appearing for the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) pocketed Sh445.5 million in legal fees following last year’s disputed election results, a report from the Controller of Budget shows.

The money was paid in the three months to December, and came after Kenyans went to the polls in the August 9 General Elections won by President William Ruto.
