The Name of the best candidate will then be forwarded to President William Ruto who will then announce the George Kinoti successor.
Kinoti had resigned from office days after William Ruto was sworn in office. During the campaigns ahead of August 9 General Elections the President accused the former DCI boss of being used by the State to stop his presidential ambitions.
Kinoti has so far been redeployed to the Public Service Commission (PSC) and could be assigned to any position in the government.
