Four senior managers at the authority were suspended last year after an internal audit revealed that they had syphoned Sh160 million from an internship programme launched by President Uhuru Kenyatta.
The audit report indicated that the four officials withdrew the cash from the authority’s Citi Bank accounts between January and July last year.
The case was handed over to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations for further inquiry.
The new acting chief executive holds a bachelors degree in business administration from the University of Columbia and a masters in information systems management from the Bowie State University, both in the US.
