Mwaura will be deputised by journalist Mwanaisha Chidzunga and political commentator Gabriel Muthuma.


Mwaura had been appointed Chief Administrative Secretary in the office of Prime Cabinet Secretary.

However, the Court declared Ruto’s appointment of 50 CASs unconstitutional.

The former senator will now take over from former government spokesperson Cyrus Oguna who resigned from the position in October 2022 to take up the position of Chief of Staff for Siaya Governor James Orengo.
