Uhuru Awards Kazungu Kambi New Job After Sacking

President Uhuru Kenyatta has granted former Labour Cabinet Secretary Kazungu Kambi a second chance in government.

Kambi, who was among five Ministers suspended from office over corruption allegations, has been nominated as chairperson of the National Government Constituency Development Fund (NGCDF).

The former Minister will, however, take up his new job after approval by the National Assembly.

Kambi was linked to corruption deals at the National Social Security Fund (NSSF) where he was said to have strongly supported the NSSF Tassia II project, despite clear indications that the board of trustees did not approve the upward review of the project’ cost from Sh3 billion to Sh5 billion.

Meanwhile, other prominent persons who have been awarded government jobs in the newly gazetted appointments are former Minister Raphael Tuju, Bifwoli Wakoli, former Chief of Defence Forces Julius Karangi among others.
