REVEALED: How Dr. Malombe Chose 10 Cabinet Nominees

Stephen Mbaya

How Dr. Malombe Chose the 10 Cabinet Nominees.


1. Regional Balance


Kitui being a vast county, there has always been need to ensure regional balance in public appointments. Indeed, during his campaigns, Dr. Malombe stated that no part of the county would be left out in his government.


For this reason, Governor Malombe's list of nominees is a clear representation of the County. All the 8 constituencies are represented.


And to add the icing on the cake, the vast Kitui South and Kitui East got two slots each. There is no more reason for a disquite from Kitui South.


Peter Mwikya Kilonzo alias Tangawizi who has been nominated to the _Finance, Economic Planning & Revenue Management_  docket comes from Athi Ward


Also from South is John Mwendandu who comes from Ikanga. He will head _Energy, Environment, Forestry, Natural & Mineral resources_ docket


The larger Kitui East also got two slots


Engineer Reuben Itiko who comes from Chuluni ward,  nominated to head _Roads and Public Transport docket.


Also from Kitui East is Joyce Titus who comes from Zombe. She will head _Education, Training & Skills development.


2. Gender Balance


Dr. Malombe's list of nominees comprises 4 women and 6 men. This satisfies the  Constitutional threshold of two thirds gender rule



3. Professional qualifications 


All the nominees have first degrees from universities recognized in Kenya. Some have post graduate qualifications such as Master's degrees, post graduate diplomas and certificates in professional fields.



4. Youth representation 


Two of the nominees are coming in to represent the youth.


One is Dr. Stephen Mbaya from Kivou Ward in Mwingi Central who has been nominated to head the _Agriculture & Livestock docket.


The other one is Phoebe Mutemi from Mwingi West who will head the _Culture, Gender, Youth, ICT, Sports & Social Services.



5. Marginalized Groups


Marginalized Groups have always deserved an affirmative action to bring them at par with other sections of the community


 Tharaka community in Mwingi North fits into this category. It is only fair that it is ably represented in Governor Malombe's administration


And this is how Peter Gitonga Nkunda comes in to head the _Water and Irrigation docket.


From Skymoon Desk, we note that this list is a good representation of Kitui County and is generously comprehensive given that there were only 10 slots for CECs.


Governor Malombe is committed to fair, just and true representation even in other upcoming public appointments. 


Meanwhile, the Governor has said there is no vacuum in his government even as the Assembly vets the nominees. CECs who have been in office will continue to hold office until new ones take oath of office, he said.

Governor Malombe Hogs Public Limelight for Best Performance

Image
By Our Reporter   When Kitui county residents went to the polls and elected Governor Julius Malombe, they were looking for a development conscious person who would lift the county from the bottomless pit where it had been thrown by Kaluki Ngilu and her bandits. Overwhelmingly, the county residents voted for Dr Malombe and ignored the other pretenders who were soiling the governor's ballot paper. And today the county residents are being vindicated. Governor Malombe is being cited among the very top governors across the country in terms of performance, just one year down the line. In the very latest opinion poll conducted by Infrotrak, Governor Malombe has posted an above average rating of 63%, a strong signal that the county is in safe hands. And the residents are excited.  "By the Time Infotrak releases another Survey, Kitui will have risen two-fold. We are done with the obstacles of development. For the next one year we shall sail through. It will be Kyuma leading the park .F

County Assembly opts to Become Partner in KITUI's Development

POINT BLANK   Our Reporter   Slightly over one year after Governor Malombe was recalled to office by the county electorate, tangible developments and growth can be witnessed in all corners of the vast County.  Governor Malombe is trying hard, in the most difficult economic times which are characterized by delayed disbursement of county allocations from the national government, to repair the County that had been torn apart and grounded by the previous mbee nzei regime.  For his efforts to transform people's lives through initiating tangible developments, the County residents in their hundreds of thousands have decided to rally behind Kyuma Kya wia, as they fondly refer to their Governor.  The County administration has rolled out a development plan that touches all the 40 Wards of the vast County without discrimination. Some of these life changing projects touch on water security, food security, health provision, roads upgrading, ECDE classrooms and staffing of ECDE centres, investme

It is Dr Malombe's Land - Evidence Shows

Payment of land rates   No Criminal Encroacher should attempt to Grab Dr Malombe's legally acquired land Our Reporter   Governor Julius Malombe, as a private citizen, has the legal rights to own land anywhere in the Country. The fact that he owns a parcel of land within Kitui Municipality should not be a strange thing to anyone. However, what is concerning is when another individual attempts to criminally encroach on and grab Dr Malombe's piece of land, in the hope that he will keep quiet just because he is the governor. This is the most warped thinking ever, and it is anchored on blackmail.  The plot in question is legally owned by Dr Julius Makau Malombe. It was legally allotted to him over 30 years ago. And as a law abiding citizen, Malombe has been faithfully and legally paying land rates for the said piece of land since that time to date! The fact that he has not developed that piece of land is not a licence for greedy individuals to try to grab it.  Siasa playing politics
