[PHOTOS] IEBC begins Continuous Voter Registration ahead of 2027 elections

The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission on Monday began the voter registration ahead of the upcoming general elections.

IEBC said it is an honour to launch the commencement of the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR).

The Electoral Commission said the exercise is not simply an administrative duty but it is the heartbeat of Kenyan democracy.

In Kajiado, the chairman, commissioners, and the Governor of Kajiado Joseph ole Lenku were on the ground to mark the important milestone.

“No eligible voter should be left behind. We must make registration accessible and convenient so that every voice is heard,” Ole Lenku said.

“I urge every young person turning 18 to seize this opportunity and register. Your vote is your power, and your power begins with registration.”

Kenyan citizens aged 18 and above can now access the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) services through Continuous Voter Registration, starting Monday, September 29, 2025.

Services include registering for the first time, correcting or updating voter details, transferring registration to a new electoral area, and verifying existing details.
