Millicent Omanga fired from government after joining DCP
The government has revoked the appointment of Millicent Omanga as a board member of Kenya Shipyards Limited.
In a gazette notice, Defence Cabinet Secretary Soipan Tuya confirmed that the decision was effected on Thursday, April 30.
“In exercise of the powers conferred by section (6) (I) (e) of the State Corporations Act, as read with section 51(1) of the Interpretation and General Provisions Act, the Cabinet Secretary, Ministry of Defence revokes the appointment of Millicent Nyaboke Omanga as a Member of the Board of Directors of the Kenya Shipyards Limited, with effect from the 30th April, 2026,” the notice read.
Omanga has since reacted to the decision, expressing surprise and questioning the relevance of the role she was removed from.
“Apparently I’ve just been officially removed from a board I didn’t even know I was still serving on. Impressive level of coordination. Decisions being made about roles that only exist on paper,” she wrote.

This development came over a month after Omanga joined the Democracy for the Citizens Party (DCP).
Omanga was received by Party Leader, former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, during an event at the party headquarters in Nairobi on Thursday, March 19.
Gachagua stated that Omanga was a leader of high integrity, insisting that she could not be compromised.
“Does Millicent Omanga look like somebody who can be bought? No one elected under the DCP ticket will be bought after the election,” he reiterated.
On her part, Omanga asked for an apology from the people of Nairobi for supporting President William Ruto, who broke all the promises he made to them.
“I am asking for your forgiveness for thinking that the UDA wheelbarrow was going somewhere, but I was wrong. He lied to all of us,” she stated.
