A great man, Wafula Chebukati, has rested.

He was a history-maker, a ground-breaker and a hero of our nation who put the country first.

He was courageous, firm and independent-minded; a man of immense integrity.

Decent and diligent, Chebukati leaves behind an extraordinary legacy of distinguished service to the public.

Goodbye, Chairman!

In Sabata, Trans-Nzoia County, for the funeral of former IEBC Chairperson Wafula Chebukati.

[Rt.Hon.Dr.Moses Wetang'ula @HonWetangula]

Today, we gather with heavy hearts to bid farewell to a man whose legacy will endure in the annals of our nation’s history. Wafula Chebukati was not just a name but a symbol of integrity, resilience, and unwavering commitment to the rule of law.

Chebukati’s guiding principle was simple yet profound, fidelity to the law and the Constitution. He did not bow to pressure, nor did he seek favor in his mandate. He understood that leadership is not about appeasing everyone but about standing firm in the face of adversity. The events of the 2022 general election remain a testament to this. While his commission was divided, he remained steadfast in his duty, unwavering in his conviction that the law must prevail.
