Narok County Commissioner George Natembeya is the new Rift Valley regional commissioner.
A letter signed by Interior Principal Secretary Karanja Kibicho says Mr Natembeya will move to the regional headquarters following the promotion.
He will replace Mr Chimwaga Mwongo who will move to Nairobi in the same capacity.
Reached for comment by the Nation, Mr Natembeya said, “Yes, it’s true … I received a letter this morning (Friday) to assume duties of the regional commissioner.”
Mr Natembeya’s transfer caused a storm on social media, with the public supporting and condemning the move in equal measure.
