The high CEO turnover that has hit State-owned firms in the energy sector has worsened with the exit of Rural Electrification Authority’s top executive.

The authority Wednesday announced that Zachary Ayieko had quit the firm, making him the fifth top executive in the energy sector to leave the corner office, after Eddy Njoroge (KenGen), Joseph Njoroge (Kenya Power), Selest Kilinda (Kenya Pipeline) and Kaburu Mwirichia (Energy Regulatory Commission).
