    "content": "Government, county governments and all agencies that are geared towards ensuring that we have a good environment and a home for humans, animals and other living things. The Council will engage in enormous activities. Therefore, their competence and knowledge are paramount. We should have people who understand, are well-acquainted and passionate about issues of the environment. From the presentation by the Chairperson of the Committee which performs the important role of vetting, they were able to scrutinise each candidate who was nominated to the Council. They were able to give us names of those who are ready to be approved. The basic grounds for the rejection of Ms. Umra Omar were very simple – competence and knowledge about the environment. We need people who will assist us to steer this nation in the right direction. We need people who will understand, articulate, discharge and discuss within and without Kenya. Remember the Council will also have a role of ensuring they resource the decisions they are going to make. They will have to resource well the aspects and the steps that we are going to take as a country. The budget we have is not sufficient in the sense that we are not going to address all the needs at a go."
