The Kenya Human Rights Commission (KHRC) has criticised President William Ruto’s recent State appointments which it has described as ‘ethnic’.
In a press statement on Saturday, the lobby group accused the Head of State of appointing and nominating too many cabinet secretaries from one region.
The human rights movement noted that by nominating the trio of William Kabogo, Lee Kinyanjui, and Ndiritu Muriithi to various government positions, Dr. Ruto contravened ethnic inclusivity since the names all come from the Mt Kenya region.
“With the new CS nominations, the Mt Kenya region is poised to dominate the cabinet. If the National Assembly approves Kabogo, Kinyanjui, and Kagwe, they will join Justin Muturi, Rebecca Miano, Alice Wahome, and Eric Muriithi in the cabinet,” KHRC stated.
