Those affected by the recent changes include QASO boss Dr. Silvans Seje, who was transferred from Muranga County to Trans Nzoia County, replacing Maurice Akala, who has been transferred to Homabay County.
The MoE also moved the immediate Homabay QASO chief, Maurice Nyadhianga, to Nandi County in a similar capacity to replace John Osundwa.
Osundwa, who was acting county QASO boss, has been appointed substantively and posted in Nyamira County, where he will replace Milkah Arucho.
The Ministry relocated Arucho to Bungoma County, where she will assume the position vacated by Robert Moseti, who has been promoted to Regional Director Quality Assurance (RDQAS) and deployed to Nairobi.
