Interior Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki revealed that he shared a cordial relationship with his predecessor Fred Matiang'i who called him via mobile phone.
During an interview on Citizen TV on Saturday, December 24, Kindiki divulged that the former CS had called him on two occasions to talk about work at the Ministry.
The CS expressed that his predecessor was keen on seeing some of his legacy projects at the Ministry extended into the regime.
"We have spoken severally on various matters and my predecessor has certain ideas that he thinks he had initiated and would want to see the light of day," he shared.
On other occasions, Kindiki asserted that they would talk about matters of national interest.
"Once or twice he has called me on national issues about what we are doing and he has given me good suggestions.
"We are in communication with Matiang'i and we wish him well in his new chapter," he added.
Additionally, in the interview, Kindiki also spoke on his first 50 days at the Ministry revealing how life had changed for him and his family.
Apart from waking up early in the morning, he stated that he could not go to bed before 10:00pm.
"It is a challenge like no other because every day at 3:30 am, I must be up so that I can get security briefs at 4:00am every day," Kindiki stated.
Nonetheless, he expressed that his family was adjusting to the changes adding that they were supportive.
Matiang'i handed over the Ministry to Kindiki on November 1 after the latter took oath of office. The former CS has maintained a low profile since President William Ruto ascended to power.
