[kictanet] Kibati leaves Vision 2030 as five-year term expires

[Walubengo J]

Am not quite sure who is advising the President - but I keep getting the feeling that the new administration is keen on "deleting" folks who added value in the last regime while retaining those whose contribution may exist but is not disclosed to the public...(think folks in security sector for example :-)

I never quite worked closely with Mugo Kibati but I could still feel his passion and effort to put ICTs at the center of the Vision 2030. I wish him well in his future endeavors...and hope his replacement continues in the same spirit.

Vision 2030 Delivery Secretariat director-general Mugo Kibati has exited the state agency after government declined to renew his contract.

Mr Kibati, who has been at the helm of the secretariat for five years said he will be returning to the private sector from where he was picked in 2008 to head the agency.

“I am making an exit from VDS proud of the gains we have made and the numerous challenges we have also managed to overcome in the gruelling effort to firmly establish Vision 2030 as the national development strategy,” Mr Kibati noted in a statement sent to newsrooms. His contract expired in June.
