Ruto-era reforms drive leadership changes at KRA
Kenya Revenue Authority’s Commissioner Shared Services Nancy Ng'etich, the Authority’s Commissioner, Micro, Small and Medium Tax Enterprises George Obell, Leonard Shimaka a Board Director at the authority, Richard Ndungu, a Board Director, and the Authority’s Chairman Ndiritu Muriithi, listen to participants during the Kenya Revenue Authority Citizen Assembly, a public engagement with businesspeople, and other taxpayers from the North Rift Region, held at Eldoret Sports Club in Uasin Gishu County on February 05, 2026.
When President William Ruto took office in September 2022, he made little secret of his intention to reshape Kenya’s tax administration, arguing that the country’s revenue collection system had become aggressive and counterproductive to expanding the tax base.
The President at the time signalled plans to reform tax administration and overhaul leadership at the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA).
