Rashid Echesa Fired In A Mini Cabinet Reshuffle

Sports Cabinet Secretary Rashid Echesa has been fired.

In an executive directive signed by President Uhuru Kenyatta, Echesa will now be replaced by Education CS Amina Mohammed.

Prof. George Magoha, currently the Kenya National Examination Council Chairman, has been nominated to the Education Ministry.

Permanent Secretaries have also been re-assigned as follows:

Susan N. Mochache, CBS-Ministry of Health

Mr. Ali Noor Ismail, CBS-State Department of Cooperatives

Dr. Ibrahim M. Mohamed, CBS-State Department of Environment & Forestry

Eng. Peter Kiplagat Tum, OGW-State Department of Labour

Dr. Margaret Mwakima, CBS-State Department of East African Community Affairs (EAC)

Dr. Susan Koech-State Department of Wildlife

Why do you think Rashid Echesa was fired? Incompetence or is it politics at play?
