Hilarious tweets as Kenyans react to former Speaker Marende's replacement as Kenya Power Chair

Kenyans on social media have responded to Kenya Power’s move to replace former Speaker Kenneth Marende’s chairmanship with Engineer Mahboub Maalim Mohamed. The announcement on Tuesday 9 January left many accusing the government of ‘playing’ Speaker Marende.

Engineer Mohamed is a former Permanent Secretary in Ministry of State for Special Programmes in Office of the President. He was elected in December to the Board by the Company’s shareholders during the Annual General Meeting.
