The court’s decision on Monday, May 19, is likely to delay the re -formation of the commission, which was to prepare for voter registration and subsequent elections.
The Supreme Court orders were accepted after a request submitted by citizens Kelvin Omondi and Boniface Mwangi, who questioned the legitimacy and transparency of the match.
Representing by lawyers Paul Muite and Ochieng Odinga, the complainants argued that the process was flawed, violated constitutional requirements, and did not involve adequate public participation.
Their concern mainly focuses on the appointment of Commissioner Hassan Noor, whose name, according to them, was initially not listed among the nominees.

The complainants claim that continuing the pre -issues before these issues were addressed could endanger the integrity of the electoral commission and undermine the political situation.
The Attorney General’s Office, however, opposed the intervention of the Court.
The state’s Attorney General, Emmanuel Bitta defended the government’s position, stating that the request was a pre -term and it was about the courts.
