    "content": "About Consolata Nkatha Bucha Maina, she was nominated for appointment as a member of the IEBC and appeared before the Committee. She was born in Meru County on 21st December 1960. She attended primary and secondary school in Meru and Nairobi. She has a Master‟s of Business Administration from Melbourne, Australia; Master of Science in Public Relations from Stirling University, Scotland, United Kingdom (UK); a diploma in Public Relations from London, UK and diploma in Social Studies from London, UK. She has worked in various institutions in Kenya and Australia and she came back to Kenya two months ago to serve the country. Her vision of the IEBC is that she wants to give back to the country by being part of a team that promises to deliver free and fair elections in August 2017. She will help to transform the electoral system in the country and build trust in IEBC as an institution to deliver credible elections. On her skills and experience, she said that she has served in senior managerial positions in several organisations both in Kenya and internationally and is very competent and experienced both in management as well as in public relations and communication. She has been out of the country for the last six years but was still following Kenya‟s affairs and development and has regularly travelled. The other candidate is Boya Molu. This nominee comes from Marsabit. He was born on 5th November 1978. He went to universities in India and graduated with degrees in Human Resource and Business Administration. He also holds a diploma in Human Resource administered by Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC). He meets the requirements under the Constitution of Kenya and that is why he applied. His background is on Human Resource Management. He is also competent on budget matters and also on strategic planning. He informed the Committee that he is familiar with technology and will, therefore, be useful to ensuring that technology works in the IEBC. He will also play a critical role if he is approved to ensure that IEBC has a credible human resource at the secretariat that it can utilise to build credible systems.
