Tourism Cabinet Secretary Najib Balala has revoked the appointment of Pauline Njoroge as a member of the Board of Tourism Regulatory Authority. Njoroge's posting was revoked after Kenyans on social media brought to the fore her previous post (pictured above) on the Nairobi National Park. In her post, Njoroge said the only selling point for the park was that it was the only national park in a capital city in the world. Cancelling the appointment, CS Balala said at the time, the ministry was unaware of Njoroge's stand on the value of the park. Phase 2A of the SGR project, Nairobi-Naivasha section, was to be constructed through the Nairobi National Park.
