Kivutha Kibwana Responds to Nepotism Allegations after Brother Hired as County Minister
Makueni Governor Kivutha Kibwana has denied nepotism allegations after his brother, Patrick Kibwana, was appointed as the Chief Health Officer.
The claims came up when the Senate Health committee put Kivutha to task over why his brother reportedly terminated contracts of striking health workers last year.
The Committee wondered why Patrick Kibwana was handling health matters and not the county Public Service Board.
“Governor Kibwana you can see the conflict of interest if your brother was employed by the PSB why are these matters of frontline health workers being handled by him and not the board? I thought that was their work,” said nominated Senator Mary Seneta.
