Led by Busia County Women Representative Catherine Omanyo, Vihiga Senator Godfrey Osotsi, Sabot MP Caleb Amisi and Bumula MP Jack Wamboka, the lawmakers claimed the Ministry of Public Service, Gender and Affirmative Action had unceremoniously redeployed Sakwa.
Addressing a press conference at Parliament Buildings, the lawmakers called for reforms in the public service to guarantee and safeguard the careers of all civil servants.
“We demand an immediate probe by NCIC on the ethnic profiling in the public service, “said Catherine Omanyo
“Matilda deserves to be promoted and not what she has been subjected to”, said Catherine Omanyo
Retired President Uhuru Kenyatta on September 17, 2019, confirmed the appointment of Sakwa as the director general of the NYS.
Sakwa had been running the service in an acting capacity, and after her appointment, she was tasked with ensuring that NYS reclaims its position in national development by equipping the youth with adequate skills and expertise so they can contribute to nation-building.
