President Kenyatta has appointed Safaricom CEO Bob Collymore and KCB Bank CEO Joshua Oigara as members of the Kenya Vision 2030 Delivery Board. The two will sit in the board for three years alongside Juliana Rotich, Rita Kavashe and Muchai Kunyiha.
President Kenyatta made the appointments in a special gazette notice that saw various other persons hired to serve in parastatals in different capacities.
