Meet Beatrice Askul Moe: Ruto’s New EAC CS Nominee
President William Ruto appointed Beatrice Askul Moe to the Ministry of East African Community Affairs (EAC) and Regional Development on Tuesday.
This was the last remaining position that needed to be filled since the President began reorganizing his cabinet.
“His Excellency the President has forwarded the nomination for Cabinet appointment to the National Assembly for their review and approval, as required by our nation’s constitution,” stated Felix Koskei, Head of Public Service.
Moe, a social scientist and consultant, specializes in community affairs management and development, focusing on fostering behavioral and social change in communities.
Before her nomination, Moe was part of the ODM party’s National Elections Coordinating Committee, which was responsible for overseeing party elections and addressing the issue of ticket sales to the highest bidders.
She served alongside Richard Tairo and Emily Awita on the newly established electoral body following the dissolution of the National Elections Board.
In November 2022, Moe was nominated by ODM, along with five others, for membership in the East African Legislative Assembly (EALA).
