Basic Education Principal Secretary Julius Bitok has been reassigned to the State Department for Tourism in the Ministry of Tourism and Wildlife following changes announced by the government.
In a statement issued on Tuesday, June 9, 2026, Head of Public Service Felix Koskei said Bitok will swap positions with John Lekakeny Ololtuaa, who has been serving as the Principal Secretary for Tourism.
