Wajir– Health Cabinet Secretary Aden Duale presided over a thanksgiving ceremony at Habaswein Primary School to celebrate the appointment of Mohammed Aden Abdi as a Commissioner at the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC) by President William Ruto.
In his address, Duale congratulated Abdi on the well-deserved appointment, urging him to serve Kenyans with unwavering integrity, diligence, and public duty.
Turning to health sector issues, the CS issued a stern warning: any health facility found colluding with patients to falsify information will face decisive legal action. This comes amid ongoing government efforts to curb fraudulent claims under the Social Health Authority.
Duale also voiced strong confidence that courts will uphold the government’s stance in the legal challenge seeking to block the recently signed Kenya-US health cooperation framework, emphasizing its benefits for national healthcare.
The event saw robust political endorsement from Wajir residents, who reaffirmed support for President Ruto’s leadership and backed his re-election bid, highlighting nationwide reforms and development projects.
Attendees included figures such as Principal Secretary Ahmed Abdisalan Ibrahim, Mandera Senator Ali Roba, Wajir South MP Mohammed Adow, former MP Nasri Sahal and Northern Water Works Development Agency Chairperson, Commission on Revenue Allocation Commissioner Fatuma Gedi, SRC Chair Sammy Chepkwony, and Teachers Service Commission Commissioner Sharon Kisire.
The ceremony emphasized community unity and commitment to national progress.
