President Uhuru Kenyatta has now appointed George Opondo Ooko as the new Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) board chairperson.

President Kenyatta, in a gazette notice, appointed Mr. Ooko to the position on a two-year term effective April 21, 2020.

The Head of State hence revoked the appointment of Nicholas Gumbo who has been serving as the KNH Board Chair since May last year.
