President Kenyatta appointed other cabinet secretaries to oversee the dockets of the suspended CSs as they are investigated.

State House spokesperson Manoah Esipisu said the principal secretaries and other State officers named in the EACC list have also been asked to step aside.

Mr Esipisu said the President has instructed the board of parastatals whose heads appear in the dossier to appoint other chief executives to act pending the investigations.

The suspended cabinet secretaries are Felix Kosgey (Agriculture), Davis Chirchir (Energy), Michael Kamau (Transport) and Kazungu Kambi (Labour).

The president appointed Industrialisation CS Adan Mohammed to take over the Agriculture docket while Henry Rotich of National Treasury will be in charge of Energy.

Mr Kambi’s Labour ministry will be headed by Raychelle Omamo of Defence while Health CS James Macharia will be in charge of Eng Kamau's Transport docket.
