Narok Senator Ledama Ole Kina has spoken about Interior Cabinet Secretary Dr Fred Matiang'i's toughness while discharging his duties.
Speaking on Monday morning during Citizen TVs Daybreak show, the ODM Senator gave the reason Interior CS behaves toughly saying that the docket he holds is more sophisticated which requires a standstill and firm leader but not a politician.
"The reason why Matiang’i is able to act the way he is and people are letting him get away with it is because of the docket that he holds. Technically, a Cabinet Secretary is supposed to be a technocrat; he is not a politician," he said.
Since his appointment in government as a Cabinet Secretary, Dr Matiang'i has introduced drastic measures and reforms in various ministries that he has headed.
He oversaw the contentious migration to the digital signal when he was the ICT CS and introduced a raft of changes in the Education Ministry including the painting of all school buses yellow and the new Competence-based Curriculum.
Matiang'i has also taken a firm stand on the Huduma Namba registration.
