Isiolo Governor Mohamed Kuti said that before the chief officers assume office, they will sign both resignation and appointment letters to ensure that they perform their duties.

Governor Kuti said that the officers will serve for a three year renewable term subject to their performance.

Speaking during the swearing-in of the officers and a member of the County Public Service Board (CPSB), Mr Kuti said that he only has to remove the resignation letter from his office of those who fail to perform their duties and append his signature to fire the said officer.

“The officers will sign two letters that include the acceptance of the employment and a resignation should one fail to perform his allocated duties. Those who will meet the set performance standards will have their contracts renewed,” said Mr Kuti.

During the selection of the officials, the governor said that he considered balance of gender, disability, education, professional experience and ethnicity.

He further said that officials agreed to focus on accountability, performance, loyalty and service delivery.

“We want quality and efficient service for Isiolo residents. My administration wants to prevent challenges that affected the previous county government in terms of service delivery.”

“The importance of this group of officers is to ensure the county government focuses on prompt delivery of quality services that fairly benefits all the residents,” he added.
