"content": "Mr. Chairman, Sir, I oppose the amendment. I do not know of any modern state where persons seeking to occupy vettable positions are not vetted. If we need security vetting, then which organ of the state is supposed to do it? It is the NIS. We have to look at the bigger picture. This is not just about us. It is about this nation. How can we stop terrorists, serial killers and other criminals from occupying sensitive positions in this country, if people are not vetted? Vetting is a critical aspect of national security. Anybody seeking to occupy public office must be vetted. Members of Parliament are Kenyans anyway. We should not have any worry about being vetted, unless one has something to hide. There is nothing wrong with being vetted. So, I oppose the amendment."
