The vetting of Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) nominees will finally take off after days of uncertainties, with the Justice and Legal Affairs committee (JLAC) now directed to proceed with the process.

Speaker of the National Assembly, Moses Wetang'ula, directed JLAC to move with speed and proceed with the vetting of IEBC nominees, which include Chairpersons and Members and lamented courts interference with Parliament's responsibilities.
