Evans Odhiambo Kidero, a former governor of Nairobi County, has been named by President William Ruto to chair the Kenya National Trade Corporation’s (KNTC) board of directors. The government’s confidence in Kidero’s leadership and expertise was demonstrated by the announcement of the appointment, which was made public through a gazette notice and was set to last for three years.
Kidero, who has experience in both public service and business management, is anticipated to lead strategic initiatives and reforms at the KNTC. The company is essential to improving market access and trade for Kenyan products both domestically and abroad.
Ruto’s strategy of bringing leaders with different political affiliations into his administration is a topic of continuous political debate, which coincides with this appointment. Critics contend that the action may marginalize people who share his political views, despite some applauding it as promoting inclusivity.
Kidero is well-positioned to handle the difficulties at KNTC and support the government’s economic agenda thanks to his background, which includes his time serving as Nairobi Governor and CEO of Mumias Sugar Company.
Here are the responses from Kenyans:
