Focus now shifts to September 13 when Deputy President William Ruto will be sworn in as Kenya’s fifth President and with all eyes now on the Assumption of the office of the President Committee. The Committee chaired by Head of Public Service Joseph Kinyua is responsible for the inauguration ceremony and will after Monday’s judgment issue a program of events on what follows ahead of the September 13 event.
Some of the things that will follow for Ruto will be handing his presidential standard which will be unveiled during the inauguration. At the ceremony, he will receive a copy of the Constitution and other laws as well as the ceremonial sword signifying his new role as the Commander-in-Chief from President Uhuru Kenyatta.
National Assembly Speaker Justin Muturi, Uasin Gishu Woman Representative Gladys Shollei, and UDA Secretary General Veronica Maina are Ruto’s representatives in the Assumption of the office of the President Committee.
The roles of the Assumption to the office of the President committee include facilitating the process of handing over by the outgoing President to the President-elect. The Committee also organizes for the security of the President-elect, organizes for the necessary facilities and personnel for the President-elect, and co-ordinate the briefings of the President-elect by relevant public officers.
It also facilitates communication between the outgoing President and the President-elect, prepares the program and organizes the swearing-in ceremony, and carries out any other activity necessary for the performance of its functions.
