Mr Waita and Mr Muturi are said to be keen on maintaining offices at State House. Though Mr Muturi’s new roles are yet to be defined, he has to contend with his other boss: State House Comptroller Kinuthia Mbugua, who is supposed to be the man in charge. His powers include having the “authority to incur expenses” and signing letters for new State House appointees. Then there is Jomo Gecaga, the President’s private secretary and nephew, whose influence within the corridors of State House cannot be underestimated. Other officials and analysts allayed fears that the many appointees in State House without clear roles was hindering service delivery.
