    "content": "After rigorous vetting by the statutory selection panel of the Appointment of the Commissioners of the IEBC, the names of four nominees were selected and forwarded to His Excellency the President. The President in turn by a message dated 5th August 2021 sought the approval of this House for the nominees Ms. Juliana Whonge Cherera, Mr. Francis Mathenge Wanderi and Ms. Irene Cherop Masit and Mr. Justus Abonyo Nyang’aya as members of IEBC. Pursuant to its verdict and Article 124 (4) of the Constitution, the Clerk of the National Assembly having advertised in the print media on 10th August 2021, my committee carried out public hearings on the suitability of the nominees on the 24th of August, strictly as provided in the provisions of the Public Appointments (Parliamentary Approval) Act No. 33 of 2011. Other than an advisory opinion by the National Gender and Equality Commission, no other memorandum was received by the Committee against any of the nominees."
