Carter Centre said former Zambia President Rupiah Banda and Carter Centre Vice-President for Peace Programmes John Stremlau would lead the Centre?s 60-person observer delegation.

Banda and Dr Stremlau will meet with key stakeholders, including the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission ( IEBC), political parties, independent candidates, civil society organisations, and the international community, and will observe polling, counting, and tabulation on election day.

The centre urged the IEBC to address technical issues that arose during the recent polling simulation to ensure smooth voting.

They also encouraged political parties, movements, and independent candidates to demonstrate commitment to the ideals of democracy and appeal to their supporters to respect the rule of law and the codes of conducts signed by candidates and political parties.

The long-term observers have been deployed since January and are now joined by short-term observers to be briefed in Nairobi and deployed for the March 4 General Election.
