Good morning,
It is on a beautiful Thursday morning and the politics surrounding President William Ruto’s appointment of over 5o CASs seems to have made its way back into the political arena.
This was after the appointment was quashed by the courts early this year after being termed unconstitutional.
However, a bill that has been taken to Parliament confirms that President William Ruto’s administration is determined to have the CAS position anchored in the law.
According to reports, Ruto has planned to return the posts, claiming that the CASs will represent a CS at any meeting directed by the president or CS.
Do you think the bill will be passed and adopted?
