A Kenyan MP has expressed plans to push for the extradition of former Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) Commissioner Roselyn Akombe from the United States.
Nyaribari Chache Member of Parliament Richard Tong’i said that he will petition Parliament write a letter to the United States government seeking the deportation of Akombe, who tendered her resignation from the commission on Wednesday and flew to the US.
The MP argues that commissioner run away from her duty of conducting October 26th repeat election as ordered by the Supreme Court and that it was unlawful for her to connect a flight from Dubai to the US while on official duties.
Akombe flew to the US from Dubai, where she had led a delegation of IEBC officials and other observers to monitor the printing of ballot papers by printing firm Al Ghurair.
“Akombe has cases to answer regarding to the current political stalemate, regarding her disappearance while on official duty and as a Jubilee Member of Parliament I can assure you that Akombe will be back in the country once we collaborate with the US government,” said Tong’i.
Speaking to Journalists in Kisii, the MP said he was disappointed with the electoral commission and urged IEBC chairperson Wafula Chebukati to take charge of the commission and deliver the repeat election as mandated.
Just say you want to kill…
Just say you want to kill her.
Let Akombe be.
She did not steal from anyone.
It is her right to quit that stupid criminal organization called IEBC.
While Kikuyus Swear to…
While Kikuyus Swear to DEFEND one of the own, this Kisii(s) are Swearing to DESTROY one of their own. Oh! My!! Oh!!!
This woman with her…
This woman with her crocodile tears and unpatriotism has had her 15mins of fame. From here on it will be downhill for her. If she could not take the heat why apply for the job? She is a wanna get rich quick, selfish woman who has no problem throwing her collegues under the bus.
What was her TOR like? She…
What was her TOR like? She did not complete her assigned duty and hence should PAY BACK THE KENYAN TAXPAYER’S MONEY. Half-baked service = undelivered!
LIPA!
I support this MP she…
I support this MP she neglected her duties and has not established probable cause if she truly feared for her life. This is holding a Supreme Court order under contempt and holding the country in a crisis.. her citizenship should be revoked. We will also start petition on change. org and appealing for all your signatures to have homeland security deport this lady for her treasonous offense..
Abdi hussein.I you REALLY…
Abdi hussein.If you REALLY think Ms. Akombe has NOT Established her Departure’s Probable Cause, then You Have Been Sleepy Drunk or You Just Came from Mars. Or is it from Mercury? FYI: Ms. Akombe has Said it and Said it AGAIN but it seems that “You Have Either Been NOT Reading/Listening or been Doing SELECTIVE Reading/Listening.
Bring Mando back too.
Bring Mando back too.
Y’all can keep her Kenyan…
Y’all can keep her Kenyan citizenship! The u.s will not give her up because all she did was run for her life!!!
As a US citizen, she cannot…
As a US citizen, she cannot be deported back to Kenya. However, she needs to come out clean as to why she ran away; tears alone during interviews don’t cut it. What waa she cooking with NASA? Dr. Akombe, what mischief did you cause to Kenya that made you elope? People of Kenya cannot trust you; they can forgive but you must come clean.
Yes Sokora she can be…
Yes Sokora she can be extradited IF Kenyan has an extradition Treaty with US. If a foreign National has committed a crime ( in this case, that remains to be seen), and US had that treaty with Kenya, yes Akombe can be extradition to face the court of law in Kenya.

This Kombe Kombe need to come out clean. If she is part of the big evil scheme that is trying to destabilize our beautiful country even usa citizenship will not help her. In fact it will make the matter waste because she cannot bribe judges in usa. Somebody said on this Mwakilishi she better be clean.
This jubilee sycophant -…
This jubilee sycophant – Richard Tong’i should first of all tell us the people who killed Chris Msando before he goes on a rant!
Richard, what is your ulterior motive in making such unrealistic demands against Dada Roselyn? Do you want her to be another Msando or Juma? Or do you want to be offered a state job like Munya of Meru and the former governor of Nakuru by Uhuru when they lost the election? Bear in mind that, it is the killing of Chris Msando that was the cause and the beginning of the current mess that we have in our beautiful land of Kenya.
Yesterday, a “KAMAU” was transferred to go to Kisumu to be in charge of the police! How many Luo’s is the Uhuru administration going to kill in order to win the election? His father did the same thing to the Luo people in Kisumu in October of 1969. This killing preceded the assassination of the late Tom Mboya on Saturday, July 5, 1969!
I really don’t understand the deep seated hatred of the Kikuyu people toward their fellow Luo citizens of the same Republic of Kenya. Have you listened to another Uhuru sycophant Kuria describing the Luo people? I don’t know what I would do if I were a member of the Luo micro-nation!
I am asking all the elders of the other 40 micro-nations of Kenya to convene an emergency meeting between the elders of Luo and Gikuyu communities in order to bring to an end this international shame between their not getting along and the unreasonable hostilities that exist between the two communities! They are embarrassing the rest of the people of Kenya.
Long live our beautiful Republic of Kenya where all the micro-nations gets along and shares the job opportunities and the wealth of Kenya equally like the people of the United Republic of Tanzania. Enough is Enough!
@Imara aka Onyango, aka…
@Imara aka Onyango, aka Civil Society aka Inciter, hater and foreigner please stop inciting Kenyans. There is nothing wrong with a Kamau in Kisumu. We have Onyangos and Oukos in Central province. They are treated very well and their houses are never burned. Stop with your nonsense.
Imara you’re wrong on your…
Imara you’re wrong on your comment about the hatred between the Kikuyus and Luos. Ordinary people in Kenya interact and live as brothers and sisters. We work together, study in the same classrooms, we are next door neighbors and we help one another with what one does not have. It’s our politicians who advocate this hatred and especially “Baba”. We are peaceful people and we would live in peace and intermarry as many Kikuyu women have married Luo men.
DR. AKOMBE HAS COMMITTED NO…
DR. AKOMBE HAS COMMITTED NO CRIME, SHE RAN AWAY FROM KENYA IN FEAR FOR HER LIFE.REMEMBER
CHRIS MSANDO?, WHY WOULD SHE WAIT FOR THE OBVIOUS, WOULD YOU?
YES
YES
@Onesmus Ochuonyo:…
@Onesmus Ochuonyo:
Thank you for your corrections. I must have the courage to thank you and agree with your comment that,” Ordinary people in Kenya interact and live as brothers and sisters” is accurate. Thank you again Ndugu Onesmus Ochuonyo.
Ati extradited for what. Did…
Ati extradited for what. Did she steal your money, kill anyone or stop you from votingÂ. Tell us why even after killing Msando Jubilee did not win. It is called serendipity or karma.W
She did not steal your money…
She did not steal your money kill anyone or prevent you from voting. Furthermore this was a contract job meaning she could be fired at will. Ati she did not complete her job. Some of you cannot handle the truth the work environment was too toxic for her and she chose to quit nothing wrong with that . Her life is Worth more . These MP should go and hide Under a rock and wait for the 2nd liberation
Clearly this is nothing more…
Clearly this is nothing more than someone seeking to make a name for themselves. The United States will no deport a US Citizen to be persecuted. As for abandoning her duties, if she felt she could not faithfully discharge those duties, then the honorable thing to do is resign. One need not continue to collect a salary for services not rendered, a lesson for many public officers in Kenya.
uhuru wanted to kill her…
uhuru wanted to kill her like he killed msando
Hahaha…yo’ll stupid. The…
Hahaha…yo’ll stupid. The US has no such treaty with Kenya…it does not have one with Italy and many countries. Heck, they will not een go to ICC…
An you think it will surrender it’s citizen to a third world country
FYI, they will now want her as an advisor to matters Africa. Smart gal, we call it options.
DR. AKOMBE IS A CITIZEN OF A…
DR. AKOMBE IS A CITIZEN OF A COUNTRY WHERE CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS ARE THE RULE OF LAW.SHE IS PROTECTED UNDER THE LAW UNLIKE SOME BANANA REPUBLICS. SO STOP YOUR EXTRADITION DRAMA.
