Charles Mwai Replaces Kameru

Mwai will be in the position in acting capacity until December when the National Defense Council meets probably to approve him.

Brigadier Mwai’s appointment comes shortly after Major General Philip Kimaru’s retirement from the position of Director of Millitary Intelligence (DMI) and his new appointment as the Director General of the National Intelligence Service (NIS).

Brigadier Mwai has for long served as Kameru’s Deputy Director of Military Intelligence.

A DMI specifically deals with military matters but can supplement other security agencies when needed.

The National Defence Council is set to meet any time to choose the next Director of Military Intelligence to succeed Kameru and make other changes including the next commanders.
