Religious leaders now want a motion to spearhead electoral reforms urgently tabled in Parliament to kick-start the process.
On Tuesday, the clerics said they the motion would determine how free and fair next year’s polls will be.
According to nation.co.ke, the religious leaders comprising of Christians and Muslim clergy, said Parliament needs to urgently enact the laws that would address electoral challenges in the country.
“We ask both formations, Cord and Jubilee, to embrace the task ahead with zeal, commitment and mutual cooperation,” said Eldoret Diocese Catholic Bishop Cornelius Korir at a news briefing.
"There is no reason that the motion should not be tabled even today,” added NCCK general secretary Canon Peter Karanja said.
“It is important that both sides have agreed on a number of issues. What is left now is the issue of logistics and semantics,” he added.
He said drafts have already been exchanged between the parties and what is going to be agreed upon is not a function of what one or two people deliver, but it is going to be what the greatest minds within both formations review and agree is the reflective of the broad framework that was agreed in the process of negotiations.
He also urged all Kenyans to read the IEBC Act so that they can be able to voice their concerns on the process from a knowledgeable point of view.
Cord has been pushing for the removal of the IEBC officials claiming they are corrupt, partisan (favours Jubilee), and therefore cannot conduct a free and fair election.
The Isaack Hassan led commission and Jubilee have since denied the claims.
Cord has held protests for over a month which have so far claimed four lives. The coalition named a five-man team to negotiate with Jubilee towards reforming the electoral body ahead of the 2017 general election.
Jubilee on its part named a team of 11 parliamentarians comprising MPs and Senators to the talks, a move which Cord rejected.
Cord insists that the talks be held outside Parliament, a bid Jubilee has dismissed saying the commissioners should be removed according to the Constitution.
