    "content": "Secondly, I want to look at the selection panel that is envisaged to nominate the commissioners. You realise that several Government bodies, including the Judiciary, have been given the power to nominate members to sit in the panel that will eventually recruit the commissioners. My problem with it is that at the end of the day, despite the diversity of this country in terms of tribe, we may get all these institutions selecting people from the same community to nominate the commissioners. I would like to urge the Chairman to re-look at this and ensure that the selection panel reflects the diversity of the country in terms of the tribal landscape that we have in this country. This will ensure we do not end up with the Judiciary and the National Gender and Equality Commission nominating people from the same tribe. You may end up with that without anticipating it. Everybody might nominate the person at the same time and when they sit together, they realise that they can speak the same language. So, there is need to have a look at that and ensure that the diversity of the country is reflected in the nomination of these people."
