An elected Member of Parliament in Kisii County has claimed that former Sports Cabinet Secretary Rashid Echesa never stepped secondary school.
South Mugirango MP Sylvanus Osoro while reacting to Echesa's sacking lauded President Uhuru Kenyatta for sending home Echesa who was never qualified for the job.
"Echesa lacked exposure to continue being a Sports Cabinet secretary. He was incompetent for the job given that he never stepped secondary school," said the lawmaker.
The Kenya National Congress (KNC) Party allied MP said the Head of State is entitled to sack and hire.
"We should not condemn Mr Kenyatta because he sent Echesa home. He has powers to determine who works in Cabinet. Echesa sacking should not be debated on because his sacking was long overdue," he noted.
The vocal lawmaker Echesa sacking will make other Cabinet Secretaries sleeping on the job to wake up and deliver.
"Uhuru's changes in Cabinet will improve governance system," said Osoro.
Mr Osoro is perceived to be a close ally to Deputy President William Ruto.
He joined DP Ruto's 'tanga tanga' ahead of the 2022 general elections.
