Four ODM legislators have opposed plans to pay commissioners of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission gratuity and allowances when they leave office.
Jakoyo Midiwo (Gem), Gideon Ochanda (Bondo), Christine Ombaka (Siaya Women’s Rep) and Oburu Odinga (Nominated) said it is wrong to reward commissioners whose integrity has been questioned.
The leaders who spoke at Nango ACK church on Sunday, added that paying the commissioners would burden tax payers.
Midiwo said compensating the commissioners will set a bad precedent where incompetent and corrupt State officers will demand compensation upon leaving office.
He called on the joint select committee to come up with a formular that will see the commissioners compensated for only the days that they have worked.
