Speaking at the occasion of presentation, the committee chairman Mr. Friday Korobe told people that it was not easy to come by the nomination as it was difficult to locate good persons and that since the committee members are human they might not have all right.
He further pleaded with any who had wished to be in the list but was not included to bear with the committee and wait for another turn. He added that all cannot rule at the same time saying that the forgone for today could be useful tomorrow.
Recalling the terms of reference, Koroba said that the paramount ruler did not dissolved the existing body and as well did not asked the nomination committee to do that, instead the committee is to add people to the existing one hence the committee did not dissolved the existing governing body.
