What Awaits June Ruto After Joining Course With KDF, NIS, KRA & Other Gov’t Officers
Defence CS Aden Duale clarified that President William Ruto’s daughter, June Ruto, has not been appointed to the National Defence College.
CS Duale stated that June enrolled at the National Defence College for a training course.
The National Defence College offers security courses for government officials, and since June is a staffer at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, she was seconded for the course.
She is part of the 27th cohort, which includes 67 students who began the program on July 3.
June, along with two other officials nominated by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, will participate in the one-year National Security Strategy course.
The course also includes staff from the State Department of Immigration, KRA, NIS, ODPP, EACC, and the Ministry of Health.
The class features 48 officers from the Kenya Defence Forces holding the rank of colonel.
Participants will engage in a curriculum focusing on leadership, strategic studies, and national security, aimed at equipping them with the skills to address contemporary security issues.
During the launch of the cohort, CS Duale delivered a speech titled ‘Public Integrity and the Whole of Society Approach,’ emphasizing the integration of NGOs, the private sector, and civil society to build a resilient and cohesive society.
He mentioned that this approach promotes collaboration, inclusivity, transparency, and accountability to address societal challenges effectively.
June Ruto faces a rigorous experience designed to equip her with the necessary skills and knowledge to excel in strategic policy roles.
The National Security and Strategy course at the National Defence College is structured to develop leaders who are well-versed in both theoretical and practical aspects of national and international security, preparing them to meet the challenges of their roles effectively.
