It is true that former Vice President Moody Awori has landed a role in the Inter-County Covid-19 Committee. Awori is among a 21- member team picked to spearhead resource mobilisation for Covid-19 response in the Lake Region. Blogger Robert Alai, had on his Twitter posted that Awori, 92, had been picked among the team which will be part of a new fundraising approach being taken by 14 counties under the Lake Region Economic Bloc – LREB in the fight against coronavirus. The tweet generated a debate among his followers, with some questioning why Awori at his age would be picked for such a role. Another user wondered if Covid-19 had existed in Kenya before if the former VP was picked on the basis of experience.
