Saturday, August 24, 2024 - President William Ruto has once again made the Gen Zs very angry following his dramatic shift where he has reappointed former Cabinet Secretaries Eliud Owalo and Moses Kuria to significant new roles, just months after dismissing them in response to Gen Zs' demands.
This move signals a renewed
focus on rewarding his loyalists despite Kenyans being up in arms over previous
appointments.
Ruto has elevated Eliud Owalo,
previously the Cabinet Secretary for Information, Communication & Digital
Economy, to the role of Deputy Chief of Staff for Performance & Delivery
Management.
Owalo’s new role is positioned
at a ministerial level, emphasizing his responsibility for overseeing the
effective implementation, monitoring, and evaluation of the government's
priority projects.
Moses Kuria, who was formerly
the Cabinet Secretary for Trade and Public Service, has been appointed as a Senior
Advisor in the President’s Council of Economic Advisors.
As a Senior Advisor, Kuria will
provide high-level economic guidance and strategic advice, contributing to the
formulation and execution of policies intended to invigorate Kenya’s economic
landscape.
The reappointments come amid
ongoing scrutiny of Ruto’s administration and its ability to fulfill its
economic promises.
On the other hand, Ruto has
appointed political and digital strategist Dennis Itumbi to head the Creative
Economy and Special Projects in the Executive Office of the President.
It must be noted that Itumbi
played a crucial role in Ruto's 2022 election victory and might want him around
to help him in again in 2027.
