Phambilini bekuvele izinsolo eNairobi zokuthi abanye “abakhulumeli” bavakashele usihlalo wehhovisi le-ECK bafuna ukuthi yena kanye nokhomishana akanye nabo basule esikhundleni noma bahoxiswe amaphepha okugunyazwa kwama-visa, nokwadala izinsolo zokuthi azibafanele abasebenzi bommeli abagunyaziwe.
LOKHO ONGAKUTHATHE KULESI SIHLOKO:
- IKhomishana yoKhetho yaseKenya ngempela ibilokhu ibhekwe umphakathi nengcindezi kulandela imiphumela yokuphela kokhetho luka-2007 kanye nokushicilelwa kwemiphumela, kodwa kufanele kugcizelelwe ukuthi lokhu kukahulumeni waseKenya ngokuphelele kanye nabantu ukuthi baxazulule ngaphandle kokuphazanyiswa okusobala noma okucashile ngabathile baseNtshonalanga. amandla, anezinhloso zawo siqu neKenya futhi azama ukusebenzisa lolu daba lwasekhaya ukuze baphinde baveze futhi banikeze imvume mayelana nokusetshenziswa kwamachweba, izikhumulo zezindiza, indawo yezindiza kanye nezindaba ezihlobene nalokho, lapho uhulumeni waseKenya esikhathini esidlule uye wama waqina futhi bathuthukisa izithakazelo zabo kuqala.
- Allegations had earlier surfaced in Nairobi that some “diplomats” had visited the chairman of the ECK's office and demanded he and his fellow commissioners resign or else have their visa clearances withdrawn, prompting accusations of blackmail not befitting for accredited diplomatic staff.
- The “bullies” are notably some EU member states but also the US, and it is understood that a formal protest note was sent to those countries diplomatic missions in Nairobi.
