    "content": "Thank you hon. Deputy Speaker. I appreciate, with all humility the work of this Committee. We appreciate them for taking time to go through the names of the nominees. I support this Motion. I have looked at the qualifications of Mr. Ali Noor Ismael. I find him to be a man who understands what he is supposed to do. He was involved in the revival of the National Bank of Kenya (NBK). We all know where NBK was during the time of the late Marambii – May God rest his soul in eternal peace. He brought the bank to where it is now. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I found out that Mr. Noor will be involved with issues to do with social security. In the current Constitution, it is important that the nominee understands issues of labor and social security. That is because in this dispensation, the elderly persons must be taken care of by the Government. It is a constitutional obligation that the Government provides social security to people who deserve it. Those are some of the facts that, that nominee appreciated when he was being interviewed. I believe that he meets the terms of reference that this job demands. The second nominee, Mr. Patrick Omutiah is a colleague. He is a lawyer. He has other qualifications over and above that. The Ministry of Sports is key in the Jubilee Manifesto. We have to deliver that which we promised. Mr. Omutia appreciates the talent of the youth and he is seeking to promote it. He is also a believer of promotion of our culture, which we believe is our heritage. I support the Motion."
