The creation of the office of director general, which is directly under the office of the governor, was done barely a day after Lenku reshuffled his cabinet on Thursday night.

Lenku said the directorate will be headed by David Muntet and will directly report to him. He said he is re-organizing the county’s revenue department in new effort to boost service delivery.

Muntet, he said, will head the new unit and is mandated to lead his new sub-county revenue directors in pursuit of his Sh1.5 billion revenue collection target.

In a statement released by outgoing County Secretary Francis Sakuda on Saturday evening, each Sub County will be headed by a director.

The appointed Sub County directors are; Jonah Orumoi (Kajiado North), Jonathan Turere (Kajiado South, Naini Musa Tipape (Kajiado East), Janet Sereu (Kajiado Central) and Emily Kiparki (Kajiado West).

Alex Lengete was appointed a deputy director of revenue (ICT Administration). The statement said the changes take effect immediately.
