The County Assembly of Uasin Gishu early this month vetted and approved the second batch of Chief Officers that were nominated by Governor Jonathan Bii Chelilim.
Chelilim had nominated an additional 7 Chief Officers to fill positions that were still vacant.
The governor had initially nominated 13 Chief Officers.
With both batches approved by the Members of the County Assembly (MCAs), and following an earlier approval of the County Executives Committee Members (CECMs), Chelilim’s government is now almost complete.
