Dennis Itumbi, one of the 50 Chief Administrative Secretaries (CAS) appointed by President William Ruto on March 23, has removed his CAS title from his Twitter bio following a court ruling that declared the appointments unconstitutional.
The High Court ruled on Monday that the appointments were unlawful because they did not go through the required public participation process. The court also ruled that the creation of the 27 new CAS positions was unconstitutional.
Itumbi has not yet commented on the court ruling, but his removal of the CAS title from his bio suggests that he may be accepting the court’s decision.
The court ruling is a major blow to President Ruto, who had seen the CAS appointments as a way to strengthen his grip on power. The ruling also raises questions about the legality of other appointments made by the president.
It remains to be seen what impact the court ruling will have on Itumbi’s future. He is still a government employee, but his role in the government is now uncertain.
