After CS Moses Kuria named former TV host Jacque Maribe Head of Communications in the Ministry of Public Service Performance and Delivery Management, Dennis Itumbi, a digital strategist, expressed gratitude to him.
Itumbi and Maribe have been friends for a long time, and Itumbi has supported Maribe through her worst moments.
Using Twitter, Itumbi shared
"Congratulations, Jacque Maribe. May God bless you as you serve Asante @HonMoses_Kuria for standing with a generation, please keep doing good and stretching your hand."
The appointment was made a few weeks after she was found not guilty in the nearly six-year-long murder case of Monica Kimani.
Did you read this?
Some of the responses to Maribe's appointment are listed below.
@AnuarSaddat: Jackie is lucky to have you in her corner. From Love poems to acquittal in murder trial, and now to her being appointed in government on a Sunday from a bar, all because of your influence. Congratulations to you and her both. The true love story of endurance!
@bungomaduke: Congratulations to Jacque Maribe. A well-deserved appointment.
@MrOnsase: Hii job mliadvertise kweli? Ooo nilisahau graduates wanaenda majuu kuvuna dollars.
@Gerjed: With millions of Kenyan youth who are jobless, did that position have to wait for Jackie Maribe to be excused by the court?
The job was specially for her. KK loves crim*nals; it's their first qualification for employability or appointment.
@GardyChacha: Was the position advertised in the first place, or is she 'uniquely qualified'?
@MAKOKHAM: All the best Jacky. ..kudos @OleItumbi for great support& being there for a friend...what a blessing!
