President William Ruto has promoted Lt-Gen Francis Omondi Ogolla to a General and appointed him the Chief of Defence Forces (CDF) succeeding Robert Kibochi, whose term of service has ended.
General Kibochi has retired after 44 years of "illustrious" military service, three of which he served as CDF, the Ministry of Defence said in a statement on Friday, announcing many changes in service.
