Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja has reshuffled his county cabinet, moving Geoffrey Mosiria from the environment docket and reassigning other key officials.
Clement Rapudo, widely known as Clemos for his successful music production career and co-founding Calif Records, has been moved from City Culture, Arts and Tourism to lead Smart Nairobi, the county’s ICT and e-services department. Clemos’ new role will see him oversee the development and management of digital services, technology-driven solutions, and innovations aimed at improving government efficiency and citizen access to online services.
The cabinet reshuffle reflects Sakaja’s ongoing efforts to align talent with strategic county priorities. By assigning Clemos, who has a strong background in creative and digital work, to the ICT sector, the administration appears to be focusing on expanding Nairobi’s technological footprint and enhancing e-governance.
Geoffrey Mosiria, who previously oversaw environment-related initiatives, has been moved out of the environment docket. While the details of Mosiria’s new responsibilities have not been publicly disclosed, the change signals a reorganization aimed at streamlining service delivery and optimizing county leadership across various sectors.
Clemos’ appointment to Smart Nairobi is expected to accelerate the county’s push for more efficient digital platforms, including e-services that allow residents to access information, make payments, and interact with county departments online. Observers note that his creative background may bring fresh approaches to user experience, digital outreach, and innovative project implementation.
The cabinet reshuffle comes as Sakaja seeks to strengthen key departments and ensure that the county’s leadership can meet its performance goals in areas like ICT, culture, tourism, and environmental management. By repositioning experienced personnel and leveraging the strengths of individuals like Clemos, the governor aims to enhance overall efficiency and deliver improved services to Nairobi residents.
Political analysts suggest that this reshuffle may also be part of Sakaja’s broader strategy to consolidate support and demonstrate proactive governance, particularly in sectors with high visibility and direct impact on citizens’ daily lives.
The Nairobi public and stakeholders are now watching how these changes will translate into tangible improvements, particularly in technology-driven solutions, environmental management, and cultural initiatives.
