Nairobi has pushed the vetting of 10 CEC nominees to Monday and Tuesday next week, citing factors such as the need to look at public views.
"We need more time to peruse documents submitted by members of the public on the nominees," clerk Jacob Ngwele said on behalf of the Committee on Public Appointments.
The committee chaired by Speaker Beatrice Elachi was to vet the candidates on
Wednesday and Thursday.
Abdi Ibrahim Hassan (majority leader) Elias Otieno (minority leader), Chege Mwaura (majority party whip) and Peter Imwatok (minority party whip) are among the members.
Others are MCAs Millicent Mugadi (Ziwani/Kariokor), Peter Wanyoike (Dandora Area 1), Peter Warutere (Roysambu), Emily Ondeje Oduor (nominated), and David Njilithia Mberia (Karen).
Governor Mike Sonko unveiled the nominees' names last Thursday.
