Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) sent Director General Brigadier (Rtd) John Waweru on compulsory leave. Waweru was sent home few hours after attending handing over ceremony of Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Wildlife. The KWS, an ex military officer, was immediately replaced in an acting capacity by Wildlife Secretary Erastus Kanga. Speaking to media, an insider revealed that Waweru was asked to remain at the KWS headquarters after the handing over ceremony as other top officials proceeded for lunch.
He was then instructed to vacate the office immediately. In that case, a memo from Deputy KWS Director, Human Resource and Administration was released directing the officials to inform all staff about he sudden changes.
Waweru was appointed by former president of the country Uhuru Kenyatta in a controversial move that sparked debates. He replaced Kitili Mbathi who resigned after serving less than two years. As a Kenyan, what can you say about Waweru's compulsory leave? Drop your comments in the comments section below.
