President Uhuru Kenyatta’s appointment of some old political names into state corporations on Monday, has fueled a social media rage as some of the people mentioned in the list are being deemed to be non-performers.
Former Kibwezi Mp, Kalembe Ndile is one among the many names that have surprised many of how they came to be in the list of the appointees. Reacting to this matter, KOT have aired their opinions over the issue arguing that the government is lacking in strategies and options of moving the nation forward.
Below are some of the tweets I sampled.
