"content": "I want to believe that this system of looking for electoral managers of our country must be as inclusive as possible. Everyone cannot come to the table to nominate the managers of elections in Kenya. The selection panel will decide the five men and women or three men and women who will manage elections on behalf of the people of Kenya. I do not agree that we have five commissioners because they are too many. Unless we convey to the people of Kenya that there is sufficient credibility in that process, we will be trapped into the same vicious circle that we have gone through. I agree with the idea to make the commissioners part time. This is as it should be. The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) had engagements with the current IEBC Commissioners. We asked them to tell us how their time sheet looks like from the time they report to work at 8.00 a.m., and the time they leave at 5.00 p.m. Some of them could not explain. Others simply said their terms of employment say that they are permanent, and they should not be asked those questions. Clearly, there is a gap. Others told us that they look at boundary delimitation. Is that a The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
