Professor George Magoha has been nominated as the new education Cabinet Secretary in the latest Cabinet reshuffle by President Uhuru Kenyatta.

If approved by parliament, Magoha will replace CS Amina Mohammed, who has been moved to the Sports Ministry, where the former CS, Rashid Echesa has been fired.

Kenyans have taken to social media to praise Magoha for the nomination, saying Uhuru made the right decision.

Professor Magoha is the Chairman of the Kenya National Examinations Council and the former vice chancellor of the University of Nairobi.

PRINCIPAL SECRETARIES SHAKE UP

Fatuma Hirsi, Principal Secretary in the Information Ministry, has also been sacked while Ms Susan Mochache was moved from the Ministry of Environment to Health.

Mr Ibrahim M. Mohamed was also moved from Mining to the State Department of Environment, Mr. Ali Noor Ismail was sent to the State Department of Cooperatives while Mr Peter Kiplagat Tum was re-assigned to the State Department of Labour from Health.

President Uhuru Kenyatta said the changes are aimed at achieving the Big Four Agenda.
