Kengen, Kenya Power, and Kenya Pipeline are in hunt for new CEOs. Eddy Njoroge (Kengen) is expected to resign, Joseph Njoroge (Kenya Power) has been nominated as Principal secretary in the energy docket, and while the contract for Selest Kilinda of Kenya Pipeline came to an end last month. The cash rich parastatals control billions of shillings directly, and indirectly through the contracts for the many infrastructure projects they undertake.
In the past, the Minister of Energy ( now the Cabinet Secretary) has had a huge say in the appointment of Parastatal CEOs within their respective ministries, and this time things are expected to be no different with the energy cabinet secretary, David Chirchir.
Kengen is exploring new sources of energy, while Kenya Power is keen to roll out energy to the rural areas. Kenya Power's procurement process has been cited as one of the reasons for the high power bills.
