A YouTube channel purported to be owned and operated by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) is fake.
An article published on a Facebook page named Kenya News Online, alleges that the YouTube channel (whose name has been changed to GIF Media from IEBC News) is operated by IEBC in conjunction with the United Democratic Alliance, a political party associated with Kenya’s Deputy President William Ruto.
“The said YouTube Channel is therefore a parody account. The Commission has reported the YouTube account (IEBC News) to the necessary authorities for action,” said IEBC in a statement shared on its official Facebook page.
Above is screengrab of the YouTube channel before the name of the channel was changed to GIF Media.
