State House Chief of Staff Nzioka Waita has officially resigned from his post, to focus on his political mission.

In a statement, Waita said that he had already tendered his resignation as the Chief of Staff in President Uhuru Kenyatta’s government as he eyes the Machakos governor seat.

Waita is seeking to replace Machakos County Governor Alfred Mutua whose two-year term is ending.

“I wish to announce that I have tendered my resignation as Chief of Staff of H.E Uhuru Kenyatta, President of the Republic of Kenya and Commander In Chief of the Defence forces.

“As I bid farewell to the House on the Hill, I wish to thank H.E the President for the honour of appointing me to be a member of his administration and allowing me the humbling privilege to serve the people of Kenya in various different capacities over the seven years,” reads part of the statement.

Waita pointed out he is proud of all the contributions he has made in President Kenyatta’s government for the past 7 years.

“My tour of duty in the Public Service has been a challenging but deeply meaningful assignment and I am proud of the small contribution that I have been able to make towards advancing the wellbeing of our great Nation,” he said.

He further urged the youth to take up careers in the Public Service to participate nation in the building.

“It is my hope that many young Kenyans who may be keen on playing their part in nation building will be inspired by my journey and will endeavor to pursue careers in the public service,” he said.

Waita joins the long list of persons who have resigned from the government to venture into politics ahead of the 9th August General Election.
