Walter Onchonga Mong’are, popularly known as Nyambane, is no longer authorised to transact any business on behalf of the State Department of Foreign Affairs.
Nyambane served as the Director of Programmes, Advocacy, and Outreach in that department.
This is after Foreign Affairs Principal Secretary (PS) Dr. Korir Singoei announced his dismissal.
It was addressed to all director generals, heads of mission, and departments within the Ministry of Diaspora and Foreign Affairs.
“This is to inform you that Walter Onchonga Mongare Director of Programmes (Advocacy and Outreach) is no longer authorized to act in any capacity on behalf of the State Department or myself,” Korir said in the memo.
Singoei subsequently urged the department heads to refrain from conducting any official business with Mong’are.
“This is therefore to instruct you to refrain, with immediate effect, from any official interactions and/or engagement with Mr.Mongare,” said Korir in the memo copied to Prime Cabinet Secretary and Foreign Affairs CS Musalia Mudavadi.
By the time of this publication, Nyambane had not issued a statement regarding his dismissal.
In the 2022 General Election Nyambane was on the verge of taking a stab at the country’s top seat on the Umoja Summit Party.
However, the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) revoked his nomination certificates due to issues stemming from his academic certificates.
