President William Ruto has made a significant leadership change within the Affordable Housing Board. In a surprising move President William Ruto has revoked the appointment of Linda Nkatha Gichuyia, who was recently appointed as the chairperson of the board.
In her place, the President has appointed Jeremiah Ndambuki Simu to take over the role. This change is set to last for a period of three years. The decision was formalized in a Gazette Notice where President Ruto specified that the new appointment took shape effect immediately.
The Affordable Housing Board plays a crucial role in advancing Kenya’s housing agenda, particularly the ambitious Affordable Housing Program aimed at providing quality housing for citizens. The appointment of Simu is seen as a strategic move to ensure the success of this initiative.
While the specific reasons for Gichuyia's removal have not been disclosed, such shifts in leadership are not uncommon in government bodies where the need for alignment with the administration’s vision and goals is paramount. Jeremiah Ndambuki Simu is expected to bring a fresh perspective and new energy to the board driving forward the housing agenda with renewed energy.
This change underscores President Ruto’s commitment to implementing his administration’s priorities and ensuring that key positions are held by individuals who can effectively advance the government’s objectives. The new appointment has already sparked discussions about the future direction of the Affordable Housing Program under Simu’s leadership.
