The changes also affect four councilors appointed by Health Secretary Susan Nakhumicha.
Nakhumicha dismissed Naomi Kature Mutua, Stephen Ochiel, Jennifer Bosibori Kibagendi and Fredrick Wamwaki.

Meanwhile, President David Ndegwa appointed Nyokabi as the Executive Chairman of the Kenya National Institute of Health (KNPHI) for three years.
“The appointment of Gerald Macharia has been cancelled,” he said.

On Thursday, the President appointed Musangi as the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK).
The Speaker of the National Assembly, Musa Wetangula, said in a speech in Parliament that “the President wants the approval of Parliament on the candidate he nominated.”
If confirmed, Musangi will replace lawyer Mohammed Nyoga whose four-year term expires in June 2023. He will also serve a four-year term with the possibility of reappointment based on performance.
