"content": "The IEBC needs to be sorted out because it requires permanency. The same IEBC we are talking about is going to conduct the coming census, a referendum and thereafter an election and yet, four commissioners resigned but are still being paid. They have shown that they lack integrity. If they resigned, let us be done with them. Integrity must be seen to exist at the IEBC. Like Caesar’s wife, commissioners of the IEBC must be beyond reproach. However, they are not. We find it a joke the way IEBC conducts elections in relation to other countries. Their electoral bodies are sharp and effective. Ours has been long wounded, personally directed and has a number of commissioners with different agendas. Even the temporary solution the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs has put forward is not going to work. It is going to be difficult and it is going to involve a lot of work, but I suggest that all necessary Committees and those involved in the running of Parliament have a say and see what we can come up with."
