Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Patricia Ondeng has been named the acting CEO of the Kenyatta International Conference Centre.<\/p>\n

Ondeng takes over from Nana Gecaga after seven years at the helm.<\/p>\n

On Friday, the KICC chairperson Fatma Muses together with top management gave Ondeng a tour of the KICC meeting spaces, offices and a tour of the view tower.<\/p>\n

Tourism and Wildlife CS Peninah Malonza last week joined the ministry\u2019s Principal Secretaries and KICC staff in a ceremony to bid Nana farewell as she completed her tour of duty as CEO.<\/p>\n

“In life, everything happens for a reason and a season. One of my seasons has come to an end while my next season is just starting,” Gecaga said in her farewell message.<\/p>\n

“I would like to thank all the stakeholders local and International who have contributed to the success in the last seven years and I ask that you continue to support and walk with the new acting CEO Patricia Ondeng. It has been a real honour and privilege to serve as CEO and thank you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nana was appointed KICC\u2019s acting managing director in 2016 by the then Tourism Cabinet Secretary Najib Balala.<\/p>\n
