DAILY POST: You won’t believe why UHURU sacked Sports CS, RASHID ECHESA! This is serious breach of trust-He deserved the sack Editor's Choice 09:35
Friday March 1, 2019-Sports Cabinet Secretary, Rashid Echesa, was on Friday fired from the Cabinet by President Uhuru Kenyatta over what is believed to be a serious breach of trust as well as being involved in corruption scandals.
Before his sacking, Echesa is said to have admitted that he was friends with Joseph Waswa, alias, Henry Waswa, the man who mimicked President Kenyatta and used the President’s name to con people. “Waswa is a friend to many politicians, including myself but he is not a business partner.” “What is wrong with me being a friend to somebody? Does that mean I involve myself in everything he does? After all, Waswa is a friend to several high-ranking politicians in this country,” said Echesa. The move is believed to be what triggered his sacking because as a CS, you cannot openly associate yourselves with thieves and conmen. Besides, it is alleged that Echesa has been leaking secrets of Uhuru’s Cabinet to the public. The embattled Echesa in many scandals in the country, among them human trafficking and was being seen as a liability to the Presidency and had to go.
