Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko has reinstated two former county executives after two of his nominees were unable to assume their appointed positions.
Former Health Services Executive Hitan Majevdia, suspended in August last year, and former Devolution Executive Vesca Kangogo, suspended over insubordination in September last year, returned to City Hall on Monday.
The two replaced Environment department nominee Sonia Birdi, who was rejected by the county assembly two weeks ago, and Health Services department nominee Stella Bosire, who failed to show up for vetting.
The two reinstated ministers attended the launch of the 2019 governor’s bursary presided by Mr Sonko himself at Charter Hall on Tuesday.
The new development was made official during a ceremony at City Hall on Monday evening that saw three other executives sworn in by the governor.
