The Jubilee Party, through its Secretary General Raphael Tuju, has issued a statement rejecting the new Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) team that was announced on Wednesday by Chairman Wafula Chebukati.
In the letter, the party acknowledges it respects the poll body and the challenges it's facing but it disagrees with the list that was put forward.
"We have noted that you have established a project team...we also appreciate the difficult situation you find yourself but we have received credible information that in the list are people known to be partisan," read part of the statement.
The document had the names of staff members the party had an issue with and included:
1. Marijan Hussein Marijan 5. Joseph Ayatta
2. Salome Oyugi 6. Joyce Ekuam
3. Decimah Mmayi 7. Limus Onyango
4. Chrispine Owiye 8. Caroline Manyange
"Given the fact that acts of omission or commission that rendered the elections null and void originated from the IEBC staff.
"We hereby register our strong objection to the deployment of the above to be in a position to run the process," it read.
