President William Ruto has announced the second phase of his Cabinet since he dissolved it on July 11 after weeks of intense protests against the government, which included appointing allies of opposition leader Raila Odinga, whom Ruto defeated in the 2022 elections.
In a speech at Nairobi’s State House on Wednesday, President Ruto appointed Kipchumba Murkomen as the nominee for Minister of Youth, Innovation, and Sports. Murkomen previously served as the Minister of Transport in the previous Cabinet.
