The National Assembly Committee on Appointments has rejected the nomination of Stella Lang’at as President William Ruto’s nominee for Gender, citing her failure to demonstrate strategic planning and cultural sensitivity.
The committee recommended Lang’at’s rejection, noting her current role as Director of Administration in the Ministry of Interior, in a report
tabled for House debate on Wednesday.
The report, presented by Majority Leader Kimani Ichung’wah, cleared the rest of President Ruto’s Cabinet nominees.
The committee generated the report after concluding approval hearings on Sunday, having vetted twenty Cabinet nominees.
Lawmakers are expected to debate the report later on Wednesday before taking a vote to adopt, reject, or amend it accordingly.
Once approved, the names will be forwarded to the President for appointment.
If a nominee is rejected, the President must submit a new name for vetting.
