General Julius Karangi Appointed NSSF Board Chairman As President Uhuru Announces New Changes In Parastatals

Retired army General Julius Karangi is one of the key appointments the president has made in his latest appointments. He will be the new National Social Security Fund. He inherits a corruption riddled fund and only time will tell if things will get better if worse. State corporations have been marked as graft bedrock and why the fight on corruption is particularly concentrating on these grounds. Most of these appointments are always political so nothing much should come as a surprise. Here’s the Gazetted list of the new appointments:
