Others include John Mbadi (Treasury), Salim Mvurya (Trade), Rebecca Miano (Tourism), Opiyo Wandayi (Energy) and Kipchumba Murkomen (Sports), Ali Hassan Joho (Mining and Blue Economy), Alfred Mutua (Labour), Wycliffe Oparanya (Co-ooperatives and MSMEs) and Justin Muturi (Public Service).

Parliament will now determine whether Soi is suitable for appointment, or uphold the committee's recommendation.
