    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I will endeavor to be quite fast. First, the three first nominees whose approval we have sought the House to adopt, it was unanimous and even the one rejected was unanimous. Second, it should be noted that each of the three are from different regions. The Registrar is from Nyandarua, Ali Surraw is from Mandera and Florence Birya is from Kilifi. Third, it should be noted that while the qualification for the Registrar is to have at least 15 years post qualification experience years in the relevant areas of expertise, the Registrar nominee has 21 years post qualification experience. For the other two, we have recommended for their nomination that they should have at least 10 years post qualification experience in the relevant areas of expertise but they each have 21 and 19 years post qualification experience respectively. Four, in respect of each of all the nominees, we did not get any adverse report. But, in respect of the three nominees whose approval we have sought, we got approval report from the DCI. He was unable to clear the nominee we have rejected. It is also important to note that each of those three nominees who we have sought approval for, topped in the interviews. Ann Nderitu emerged number one out of the three names that were submitted to the President. The second nominee, Ali Surraw was number two out of nine whose names were submitted. Number one was obviously omitted because she came from the same region as the nominee for Registrar and they are of the same ethnicity. So, obviously she had to come to number two. Nominee number three, Florence Birya emerged number three out of the nine. So, obviously the President acted logically because there could have been a good reason to omit those ones.
