President William Ruto has announced new appointments to various Kenyan parastatal leadership positions, detailed in a gazette notice on September 5, 2025. These changes include a significant new role for Dr. Samier Muravvej.

• Dr. Samier Muravvej was appointed the new non-executive Chairperson of the Kenya Fisheries Service for a period of three years, effective September 5, 2025.
• This appointment revokes Muravvej's previous role as non-executive Chairperson of the National Syndemic Diseases Control Council (NSDCC), a position he held since July 2025.
• President Ruto also appointed a seven-member selection panel for the National Land Commission (NLC), whose current board's tenure ends on November 14, 2025.

The National Police Service Commission (NPSC) has released guidelines for the recruitment of 10,000 constables, with applications set to begin immediately. The move follows recent announcements by Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen and President William Ruto regarding the immediate start of the large-scale recruitment drive.

• A total of 10,000 constables will be recruited, with 4,000 earmarked from the National Youth Service (NYS).
• The NPSC approved a comprehensive roadmap, emphasizing transparency and merit-based selection.
• Collette Suda was announced as the new Vice-Chairperson of the NPSC.

Faith Odhiambo, the President of the Law Society of Kenya (LSK), faces accusations of compromising the society's independence after accepting a government appointment. Once a vocal critic of President William Ruto's administration, her decision to join a panel on protest victim compensation has sparked significant debate.

• Faith Odhiambo accepted the role of vice chairperson on a new government-appointed panel on September 4, 2025, alongside Constitutional Advisor Makau Mutua as chair.
• She was elected the 51st LSK president in March 2024, becoming only the second woman to hold the position after Raychelle Omamo.
• In July 2024, Faith Odhiambo had rejected a previous appointment by President Ruto to a task force on Kenya's debt, citing unconstitutionality.
