Murkomen nominated CS for Roads and Transport

Elgeyo Marakwet senator and nominated cabinet secretary of roads and transport Kipchumba Murkomen has stated that the Kenya Kwanza government has inherited demoralized public servants who have been living in fear since the previous administration led by the former president Uhuru Kenyatta.

Speaking in Koilel, Uasin Gishu county on Sunday Murkomen said that most public servants were used by the previous government to perform political functions contrary to their oath of office.He says that these has made them uncomfortable in their offices now that the people they humiliated are part of the government.

“Many of the servants are now living in fear that the new cabinet secretaries upon taking office may sack them.This happens because in five years they have been living in fear that was inflicted to them by the previous administration but we want to tell them that this is a different government that enables every public servant to work in free environment and to harness their potential and serve this country towards achieving prosperity.”said Murkomen

 At the same Murkomen stated that the government will deal with the bandits in kerio valley decisively soon after the nominated interior cabinet secretary Professor Kiture Kindiki takes office before holding religious prayers in the area.

“When the new Interior CS Kindiki comes to office we will make sure that we go back to kerio valley to settle the disputes there before taking the religious leaders to the area for prayers.”added Murkomen

The county commissioners and chiefs are among the public servants who were heavily accused by Kenya Kwanza brigades during campaigns of being used by the previous administration to perform political functions.
