Foreign Affairs CS Amina Mohamed has made major changes in her ministry, days before she faces an African Union vote on her future. Mohamed posted a record 118 staff to embassies abroad in what may be her last major assignment if she gets the job as chair of the AU Commission secretariat. Among those moved include the late Vice President Kijana Wamalwa’s widow Yvonne, who has been posted to Dar es Salaam as the minister. Yvonne has been serving as a senior officer in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Nairobi headquarters. Others who were moved include Lawrence Waweru who will be the Minister in Gaborone, Botswana, Joshua Mugondo, Minister Counsellor 1 in Abuja, Nigeria, and Washington Oloo, who would be Minister Counsellor 1 in Beijing, China.
