The occupant will have two deputies.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the NADCO report recommended the establishment and entrenchment of the Office of the Prime Minister in the Constitution as a means of coordinating functions of the Executive arm of Government.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/kenya\">Kenya<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Kenya.
