    "content": "In line with Article 118 of the Constitution, the Committee invited public participation. Only one submission by Mr Eliud Karanja Matindi opposed her nomination. It cited her dismissal from the Cabinet through Gazette Notice No.8440 of 2024. However, the Committee determined that the dismissal was under Article 152(5)(b) of the Constitution which allows presidential discretion and does not bar one from future appointments. She was not dismissed under Article 75(2) of the Constitution which carries disqualification provision. The objection though duly received, was constitutionally unsubstantiated. The Committee, therefore, recommends her appointment."
