Laikipia Governor Ndiritu Muriithi has nominated an MCA to take over the post of County Executive Member in efforts to streamline his administration.
The governor on Monday recommended the appointment of Peter Matunge Lemerian from Laikipia North to take over the position left by Njenga Kahiro at the Water, Environment, and Natural resources department. Njenga moves to Mali Asili Inc in the East African Region.
In the unexpected reshuffle, chairperson to the Laikipia County Revenue Board Wangari Wachira was recommended to head the Agriculture and Livestock slot left by Veterinary Lucy Murugi.

Nyamira County Assembly leadership has denied a fallout among members after the name of a nominee to the House was omitted in a report.
Yesterday, Speaker Moffat Teya came out to deny any rifts in the Assembly, but failed to explain why Clive Ongwora s name was left out to the Department of Environment, Water, and Natural Resources.
Ongwora s name was expunged from the report that was tabled before the House a week ago. Four other names that were in the report were approved by the Assembly and later appointed to Governor Amos Nyaribo’s Cabinet.
In the last couple of years, Kisumu, Siaya and Homa Bay counties have been grappling with several cases of cholera that has claimed several lives. Now however, health officials claim they are yet to report any case.
And at the core of the transformation is the little-known homemade device that now dots the entrances of several homes in the region as residents begin to take their hygiene seriously.
With only a stick acting as a lever, ash drawn from their kitchens, soap and some sort of container, almost each household has erected the device in their compounds.
