Kenya: Chebukati Resurfaces All Smiles Sharing Good Time With Father

21 August 2023

Nairobi — Former Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) Chairman Wafula Chebukati has emerged after shying off from the public limelight for some months now.

Chebukati who has been a bit cagy and reluctant when it comes to showing off his family ever since he became the poll body chairperson shared a picture of him and his father.

On his social media account on the 'X' platform, the Former IEBC Chair is seen wearing almost similar berets to his father as they are all smiles and laughter.

"Laughter transcends generations," he tweeted.

Chebukati's last public appearance was before the Justice Aggrey Muchelule-led tribunal on, January 24.

He was testifying before the tribunal probing the conduct of four IEBC commissioners.

Since 2016 when Former President Uhuru Kenyatta appointed him as the IEBC Chair he has managed to keep affairs concerning his family quite private.

Details concerning his wife Mary Wanyonyi came out to the public when President William nominated her for appointment as the Chairperson of the Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA).

Members of the National Assembly approved Wanyonyi's appointment on after determining her suitability for the position.

Despite the uproar concerning her shortlisting and appointment, Chebukati congratulated her wife saying her expertise is well suited for the post.

"Congratulations Mary on your appointment as Chairperson of the Commission on Revenue Allocation @CRAKenya! Your dedication and expertise will undoubtedly contribute to the Mandate of the CRA and prosperity for all Kenyans. Keep your fidelity to the Constitution and the Law.Wishing you great success in this important role," he tweeted.
