Former Law Society of Kenya (LSK) CEO and Senior Counsel Apollo Mboya has written to the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Renson Ingonga urging the recording of statements from individuals featured in NTV’s investigative documentary, Stolen Ballot: Inside the Bitter 2007 Presidential Election Heist.
The documentary, which aired on Sunday, 15th March 2026, revisits the controversial 2007 General Elections, highlighting testimonies from several prominent figures including Alfred Mutua (former Government Spokesperson), Philip Kisia (former MD & CEO of KICC), S.K. Macharia (Chairman, Citizen Media), Nimrod Mbai (former bodyguard to Alfred Mutua), Jack Tumwa (former ECK Commissioner), Muturi Kigano (former ECK Commissioner), and Waithaka Waihenya (former Editor-in-Chief, KBC).
According to Mboya, the documentary exposes how State machinery was allegedly used to influence the 2007 Presidential Elections, ultimately triggering post-election violence that claimed thousands of lives and destabilized the country.
In his letter, Mboya reminded the DPP that “subversion of the will of the electorate and the resultant post-election violence are serious criminal offences that do not have a statute of limitations.” He requested that the DPP exercise constitutional powers to record statements from all culpable parties with a view to holding them accountable.
The letter further warns that should the DPP fail to act, private prosecution proceedings would commence within 21 days.
Apollo Mboya’s move underscores a growing call for accountability in relation to Kenya’s most contentious electoral period, decades after the violence and alleged rigging of 2007.
