The new Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen has officially handed over the reins of the Youth Affairs, Creative Economy and sports to his successor Salim Mvurya.
Murkomen was moved to the Ministry of Interior and National Administration in a Cabinet reshuffle made by President William Ruto last year.
Welcoming the new CS, Kipchumba Murkomen said that it was a privilege and an honour to serve the country in any capacity and thanked the ministry staff, led by PS Ismail Madey and Eng. Peter Tum, for their dedication.
“It is a privilege and an honour to serve your country in any capacity. I am grateful for the chance I had to work with the Ministry of Youth Affairs, Creative Economy and Sports,” said CS Murkomen.
“As I officially hand over the docket today to Hon. Salim Mvurya, I wish to extend my gratitude to the ministry staff, led by PS Ismail Madey and Eng. Peter Tum, for their dedication.”
The two Cabinet Secretaries also conducted a joint inspection of Nyayo National Stadium and the Moi International Sports Centre, Kasarani with CS Mvurya expressing confidence that Kenya is ready to co-host CHAN 2024 and AFCON 2027 tournaments.
