    "content": "(Prof. Saitoti): Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the House will do a great deal of good to this country by actually passing this Motion. We want to give the nod to the nomination of the two gentlemen and one lady. These three people have impeccable credentials. In the case of the Chief Justice, as I said, during my time at the University of Nairobi we were together. As things were, there was a great deal of interaction, and a great deal of intellectual discourse. Dr. Mutunga is a great intellectual and a scholar. It is important that in this type of job, at the Supreme Court, we should have people who are also scholars and intellectuals. There is no doubt that the Chief Justice will be required to read quite a lot. That is one person, I have no reservation at all. I also have no reservation in the case of Ms. Nancy Baraza. We have seen her work. We also know how she suffered in the struggle for democracy in this country. There is no doubt that is a good reward to the women of this country. She will contribute greatly in streamlining our judicial system in this country. It is important that we have a woman in that position. She will be looked upon as model by the young children, especially the girls."
