A row is simmering in the Ministry of Information, Communication and
Technology over a law that gives the Cabinet secretary power to make
unilateral appointment.
Executive Order No. 2 of 2013 by President Uhuru Kenyatta on the
reorganisation of government that establishes the Information and
Communications Technology Authority ( ICTA) gives the ICT Cabinet Secretary
power to appoint the CEO of the authority without involving the board.

@Brian, Alice,

ICT is big business.? Big business cannot happen without politics.? And
incidentally politics is NOT bad (yukk) because that is how we decide who
governs and how to share public resources.? Perhaps it is "the politician"
who is yukk :-)

Anyway, I have googled for this? Legal Notice No.183 of 2013 on the Kenya
ICT Authority but getting close at http://www.kenyalaw.org/ but not quite
nailing it. Anyone who can serve it clean on a PDF?

walu.
