A popular local actor, Kenneth Ambani has been dropped as Youth, Gender and Sports Executive following changes announced by the Mombasa Governor Abdulswamad Nassir.

In Executive Order No. 9, Nassir, in his first changes since taking office in September 2022, replaced Ambani with Jonathan Wepukhulu.

At the same time, Nassir also nominated Ibrahim Khamis as County Executive for Blue Economy, Co-operatives, Agriculture and Livestock, replacing Kibibi Abdalla, who has been moved to the Environment and Water portfolio, which was previously held by the Deputy Governor Francis Thoya.

Thoya has been assigned to oversee flagship project coordination and delivery, supervising key administrative priorities across all departments.
