Notable people nominated for Principal Secretary job

President William Ruto has nominated 14 persons to serve as Principal Secretaries in various ministries.

A statement from the Executive Office of the President said the nominations were in accordance with recommendations of the Public Service Commission.

“The Presidential Action, serialised as Executive Order No. 1 of 2025, causes nominations to and re-assignments of State Departments, as well as postings to the nation's foreign service,” the statement said.

State House said the changes are driven by the need to harness the opportunities within emerging sectors of the economy, as well as to address challenges affecting Kenya's social fabric.
