Information, Communications and the Digital Economy Cabinet Secretary William Kabogo has appointed the widow of the late Emurua Dikirr MP Johana Ng'eno, Naiyanoi Ntutu Ng'eno, to the Information and Communication Technology Authority (ICTA) board.

According to a gazette notice dated April 2, Naiyanoi was appointed as the ICTA board member for three years, effective immediately. 

Following the announcement, ICTA Board Chairperson Lily Ng'ok Kirui took to her social media to express confidence in Naiyanoi’s ability to deliver in the said position.

“Welcome to the Information and Communication Technology Authority (ICTA) Board Mrs. Naiyanoi Ntutu Ng'eno,” wrote Ms. Kirui.

“I am looking forward to working closely with you. I have no doubt in your abilities and the contribution you will make to the team. Together, we will fulfil our collective mandate.”

The late MP’s widow came into the limelight following his tragic death in a helicopter crash on February 28, 2026, alongside five others.

She was endorsed to contest for the Emurua Dikirr Parliamentary seat left vacant by her later husband but she turned down the opportunity.
