VOCAL Africa debunks the false claim that you must travel to the place where you plan to vote in 2027 in order to register now.

Kenyans can register or update their voter details at any IEBC constituency office across the country, regardless of where they intend to vote in 2027.

I am looking forward to this continuing conversation regarding achieving financial sustainability in our local institutions and continued youth empowerment. See you there.

@TextBookCentre I nominate #Vincent De Paul, author of Flashes of Vice because he is a passionate author and poet. Why? Because if we were all passionate enough, to live our stories authentically, we would have a better world. Don't we want to reward that?
