Governor Lee Kinyajui's four nominees for County Executive Committee (CEC) have been rejected by the county assembly.
The Committee on Appointments rejected Mrs Halima Gababa Abdulahi (Youth, Gender, Culture and Sports and Social Welfare), Ms Lucy Wanjiku Kariuki (Housing, Land and Physical Planning), Mr Raymond Kimutai Komen (Education, ICT and e-Government) and Mr Joseph Kiuna (Finance and Economic Planning).
The commitee, led by Speaker Kairo, said the four were unsuitable to hold the positions they were nominated for.
The rejection is a blow to Governor Lee who had pushed for the list saying the nominees are the most qualified to run his government.
