President William Ruto has nominated former Starehe Member of Parliament Charles Njagua, well known as Jaguar, to be a member of the Commission of Administrative Justice (CAJ).
In a statement signed by the Head of Public Service, Felix Koskei, on Tuesday, November 12, the Head of State nominated Jaguar to the government position alongside Dorothy Jemator Kimengech.
Jaguar is a well-known Kenyan politician, entrepreneur, and musician who made his political debut in 2017 when he vied for and won the Starehe Parliamentary seat on the Jubilee party ticket. However, in August 2022, the lawmaker lost his seat after serving for only one term.Â
The former legislator holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Peace Studies and Conflict Resolution from Mt Kenya University, which he obtained six years ago.Â
