Owalo: Towering minister making political waves after years out in the cold

He is among the few leaders from Nyanza whose flower blossomed after the election of President William Ruto in August after several years in the cold.

A towering figure who measures his words with careful grit and plays it cool even when the political sea is rough, ICT Cabinet Secretary Eliud Owalo is slowly developing a profile as a force to reckon with.

His bosses - President Ruto and his deputy Rigathi Gachagua - rate him highly in their Cabinet with Gachagua describing him as the most dedicated CS. In Nyanza, he has emerged as the cream and a trusted ally of president Ruto, elbowing out a long list of political leaders who had joined Ruto's camp in the build-up to the last elections with the hope of earning a seat in Ruto's high table.
