The fete came amid a longstanding tiff between chairman Wafula Chebukati and four of the commissioners from the electoral agency.
The commission has also been a subject of ridicule as Raila Odinga accuse the chairman of single handedly bungling the August 9 General Election while on the other hand President William Ruto unconditionally praised the commission for running a credible election.
The procurement process for ballot papers and the KIEMS kit for the August 9 General Elections was embroiled in a series of controversy.
The tender, according to the IEBC website was under tender number IEBC/OT/022/27/2021/2022 and described as a supply and delivery of KIEMS network for 2022 General Election contracted for three years.
The tender was initiated on January 28 and submitted on February 18.
