The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) has appointed Ruth Kulundu as acting CEO and Commission Secretary, succeeding Moses Ledama Sunkuli following the conclusion of his six-month term on Tuesday.
In an internal memo issued to staff on August 4, 2026, IEBC chairman Erastus Ethekon announced that Kulundu assumes the leadership role effective August 5.
“The Commission has appointed Ruth Kulundu to the position of Acting Chief Executive Officer/Commission Secretary, effective 5th August 2026,” Ethekon stated in the memo.
He urged all IEBC employees to support Kulundu during this period to maintain seamless operations across the organization.
Ethekon also expressed gratitude to outgoing acting CEO Moses Ledama Sunkuli, who originally stepped into the role earlier this year following the departure of former CEO Marjan Hussein Marjan.
