President Uhuru Kenyatta is set to open the refurbished Kenya Meat Commission on Monday, and officially hand it over to the Kenya Defence Forces. This comes eight months after Uhuru transferred the commission to the Ministry of Defence through an Executive Order. The Law Society of Kenya also moved to court challenging the restructuring of the Kenya Meat Commission (KMC). "The Ministry of Defence has no role or representation in the KMC as established under section 3 of its Act. The President ought to trigger relevant amendments to the Act before reorganizing the commission," Manwa said.
