    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I insist that Sen. Khalwale would have been very helpful to the Committee if he had brought that evidence before us, so that he could try to persuade us. As regards the qualification of this gentleman, whom I had never met in my life until the vetting, and so I am not holding brief for him--- It must be remembered that even as we talk about experience, which Sen. Musila talked about, the President had a right even to nominate a civilian without any knowledge about the police force, if that person was qualified under the law. So, it is not fair, again, to visit it upon Mr. Boinett; that he has not been to the top of the police ranking. I heard Sen. Orengo say that if it was Sen. Kipchumba Murkomen, he would have voted for him with his eyes closed, yet Sen. Murkomen has absolutely no experience about the police. In fairness to Mr. Boinett, first of all, as pertains to the degree, this is a matter that we interrogated at great lengths. We even called the CEO of the Commission of University Education, Prof. Some. The law says he needs to have a first degree. A first degree is just a degree. A masters is a degree and a PhD is a degree."
