    "content": "Gitobu Imanyara who were his lawyers in the High Court. We defended him. I also know Nancy Baraza. She was then in FIDA and I am the one who appointed her to the Law Reform Commission when I was the Minister for Justice, National Cohesion and Constitutional Affairs. I also do know Keriako Tobiko, a brilliant lawyer. We worked with him at Bomas, when he was a member of the Constitution of Kenya Review Commission (CKRC). We are all members of the Law Society of Kenya. They are all very learned people, people of high integrity and my recommendation is that all of them be approved as a package by this House, without any amendments or reservations. I have read the Report. I have also followed the media reports as the Committee was interviewing those people. It was quite obvious that there has been an orchestrated campaign against Keriako Tobiko through the media. The role of approving and disapproving people to high offices as per the Constitution is vested in this House. This House is sovereign. There have been some attempts to intimidate this House from out there. This House should stand firm!"
