Cabinet Secretary for Information, Communications, and Technology (ICT) Joe Mucheru has described Raila Odinga as the country’s incoming president and would not mind serving in his government once President Uhuru Kenyatta leaves office.
Speaking to a local publication on his future after the end of Uhuru’s term, CS Mucheru, a former Google executive said he intends to go back to the business world, where the president fished him from.
”I’ll go back to business where I came from. If the incoming President (Raila Odinga) says I did a good job and wants me back, I will heed to the call,” he said.
