Kitui Governor Dr. Julius Malombe today presided over the administration of oath of office of the newly appointed County Secretary, County Attorney and Secretary to the County Public Service Board, concluding a recruitment process that began in December 2024 and was conducted through open vetting and approval by the County Assembly.
The Governor said the appointments were made in strict adherence to the County Governments Act and indicated the importance of integrity and professionalism in public service.
The three senior officers who took their oaths of office are Agnes Mulewa as County Secretary, Timothy Mwange Kyalo as County Attorney, and Christopher Ombunya as Secretary to the County Public Service Board. The oaths were administered by Kitui Principal Magistrate, Hon. Sindani.
During the ceremony, Dr Malombe announced the renewal of contracts for 19 Chief Officers whose terms expired in February 2026. He said the renewals were informed by positive performance appraisals over the last three years and were effected in line with the Kitui County Human Resources and Procedures Manual.
The renewed contracts will run for two years or until successors are able to make the competitively recruited following the 2027 General Election.
“I am calling upon all the newly appointed officers and the Chief Officers whose contracts have been renewed to perform their duties diligently in order to deliver key services and transformative development to our people.” said the Governor.
