A Nakuru-based doctor, Magare Gikenyi, along with two other citizens, has filed a petition in court challenging the recent appointments made by President William Ruto of former governors and politicians to various state corporations.
The petitioners argue that these appointments are unconstitutional, violate legal requirements for public service recruitment, are discriminatory, and are based on political favouritism.
Dr Gikenyi, along with Dishon Keroti Mogire and Philemon Abuga Nyakundi, is contesting the appointment of the individuals to non-executive chairperson roles.
They argue that the appointments were made without proper adherence to the law by the presidency.
