Matiang’i Conduct’s First Orientation Ceremony For His Juniors

Super Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i has already hit the ground running and is today hosting Cabinet Secretaries for his first ever meeting with them to discuss on a number of issues pertaining to his new role.

Cabinet Secretaries were seen arriving at Harambee House for the inaugural meeting.

The CSs started arriving for the meeting scheduled to kick off at 8am at around 7.30am.

An Executive Order by President Uhuru Kenyatta last month created the National Development Implementation and Communication Cabinet Committee.

It brings on board all CSs, Attorney General Kihara Kariuki and Head of Public Service Joseph Kinyua.

Though the agenda of the meeting is not public, insiders in government indicate that the CSs are expected to come up with a work plan to achieve the objectives of the Executive Order.

Just last week, the President told CSs not comfortable with his order elevating Matiang’i to quit his government just days after the Star reported the storm created by the move.

The Matiangi-led National Development Implementation and Communication Cabinet Committee will report directly to the President.

It would provide overall supervisory leadership throughout the delivery circle of all national government’s programmes and projects.

The President’s move is seen as a deliberate strategy to take charge of his legacy projects, especially the Big Four Agenda.
