    "content": "precipice and realise that today, we must start the journey to strike a blow for reforms in the electoral arrangement in this country. As we speak, there is a vacuum in this critical area of our governance. We do not have an electoral body. Therefore, the urgency of this House taking keen consideration of this process and giving this country this IIEC cannot be gain-said. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in preparing the list that the Chairman has ably presented to this House, we went through a very thorough process. The Committee has taken time to build consensus and I can confirm that the list that has been presented here enjoys the full and absolute confidence of the Parliamentary Select Committee, tasked by this House to undertake this process this far. We have faith in the professionals that have been nominated to undertake this task. We have absolutely no doubt that given the responsibility, this team can live up to the expectation. I also want to urge hon. Members to judge each of these nine nominees purely on their merit. The last time we presented this list here, which has since undergone amendments, a lot of issues were brought to the fore, some of which we had time to interrogate in the Committee and did not find any merit in them. Therefore, I want to urge the House that may we consider each of these nominees purely on their merit."
