The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) spent more than Sh4 billion fighting legal battles from the 2022 General Election, a new report by the Auditor-General office shows, signalling a windfall for lawyers engaged in court suits.
Out of the amount, the IEBC paid Sh2.3 billion in the year ended June 2023, Auditor-General Nancy Gathungu said, leaving Sh1.92 billion in pending bills.
