The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) has appointed Moses Ledama Sunkuli as the acting Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Commission Secretary, effective immediately.

In a statement on Thursday, IEBC noted that Sunkuli, who is the current Commission's Director of Electoral Operations, will serve in an acting capacity for a period of six (6) months or until the recruitment and appointment of a substantive CEO is finalized.

The position fell vacant after Marjan Hussein Marjan resigned after a mutual agreement to terminate his services.

IEBC Chairperson Erastus Ethekon expressed appreciation for Marjan’s contributions since his appointment in March 2022, noting his leadership during a period when the Commission operated without fully constituted Commissioners until July 2025.

“We thank Mr. Marjan for his dedication and professional service to the IEBC and wish him well in his future endeavours,” Ethekon added.

Marjan stepped down after mounting pressure from opposition parties demanding his exit ahead of the next General Election. Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka warned that the upcoming election might not be free and fair if Marjan remained in office.

IEBC noted that Sunkuli brings extensive experience and internal institutional knowledge to the role.
