    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for protecting me from the loud consultations. I was not being heard properly. We have had a chance of listening to all these people and I am so happy that George, Peter, Maria, Dr. Isabela, Abdiaziz and Robert are very qualified people. I want to encourage other committees to look at qualifications when conducting interviews like these because this negates the idea of ethnicity. Some of these people have had opportunity to serve at the national level without looking at where they are coming from. They need to look at somebody like Robert who comes from Trans Nzoia and by accident, he has a Kisii name. He has no idea of what happens in that part of the world. He is born and bred in Trans Nzoia, married to a lady from that region and his children speak the language of that part of the world. Everything about him is in that region. I am grateful that my colleagues in the Committee were kind enough to look at all those issues in totality, so that they could make the right decision to come up with these kinds of names. Once they settle down, they will appoint a chairman who is competent and has expertise to drive the agenda of the NG-CDF going forward without having to wait."
