    "content": "Regarding Ms. Hadija Nganyi Juma, she holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Sociology and IT from Maseno University; and a Higher Diploma in Early Childhood Development Education (ECDE) from the University of Nairobi. Hon. Speaker, we were able to establish that Ms. Juma has 12 years of experience from the time she was a clerk with the Ministry of Labour, Social Security and Services, where she oversaw the digitisation of the social fund we pay to the old people. We had a chance to listen to Dr. Isabel Nyambura Waiyaki. Until now, Dr. Waiyaki is a director with NG-CDF Board. She holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Economics from the University of Nairobi, and it is important to note that this lady had honours in her Economics degree. She holds a doctorate in Economics from the University of Nairobi, and Master of Arts in Leadership and Governance from Pan-African Christian University. We were able to establish that Dr. Waiyaki has worked extensively in various government organizations. She has done consultancy on matters of economics and finance and has an accumulated experience of more than 11 years in policies related to health, planning, trade negotiations and the economy. We listened to Mr. Jonas Kuko, who was a candidate who started his career from getting a certificate to getting a diploma and earning a bachelor’s degree in Agriculture in Farm Technology from Egerton University. Mr. Kuko has worked as a Principal for Chebororwa Agricultural Training College, and demonstrated to have prudently used the funds that were allocated to the institution and winning, four years in a row, as the Principal of the Year. In addition, Mr. Kuko served in the Rural Electrification Authority (REA) as a board director and, therefore, having accumulated financial and economic experience of around 15 years. Regarding Mr. Wilfred Koitamet ole Kina, this was one the people that led to the constitutional change in this country, having served as the Chairperson of the Constitution of Kenya Review Commission (CKRC). He served again as the Deputy Coordinator for Crisis Response Centre at the Office of the former Prime Minister. Has served on the Kenya Tourism Board (KTB) as an Executive Director; founder of the Maasai Education Discovery, and most recently as a board member for the Kenya Institute for Public Policy Research and Analysis (KIPPRA). He holds an Executive Master’s Degree in Public Policy and Administration, and a Bachelor’s Degree in Philosophy and Literature from Kenyatta University. All the seven nominees met the requirements of the Constitution in terms of their academic qualifications and academic performance. Pertaining to Chapter Six of the Constitution, we were able to receive information from all the government agencies, including the Director of the DCI, the EACC and all those others confirming their suitability to be commissioners with the CRA. It is important to thank the members who sat through the long meetings to make sure that we vetted these nominees, because the term of the current CRA commissioners ends on 31stDecember 2020. Therefore, this Sitting was extremely important, and I really want to thank the Members of Finance and National Planning Committee for sitting through long hours and objectively vetting these commissioners. With those many remarks, Hon. Speaker, I beg to move and ask the Hon. Vice- Chairperson of the Departmental Committee of Finance and National Planning, CPA Amb. Lang’at to second. I move.
