The Committee on Appointments rejected Ruto’s nomination of Stella Lang’at as the nominee for the Gender Ministry saying she failed to demonstrate adequate understanding of the docket.
Following the gazettement, President Ruto will on Thursday morning witness the swearing-in of 19 Cabinet Secretary nominees.
The 19 will be sworn in at State House, Nairobi from 9 am, a media invite by Press Secretary Emmanuel Talam shows.
The event will come just hours after the National Assembly approved a report tabled in the House by the Committee on Appointments on the approval of Ruto’s Cabinet nominees.
