The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) has reorganized its business by appointing two new commissioners and a deputy commissioner.

Dr. Terra Saidimu Leseeto and Dr. David Wachira Kinuu will serve as the Commissioner of Intelligence & Strategic Operations and Commissioner Corporate Support Services, respectively.

Saidimu assumed the role in an acting capacity in June following the appointment of James Gathii Mburu who held the position as the Commissioner General of KRA.

“The three gentlemen bring to KRA a wealth of experience and unrivalled academic credentials which will propel this Authority to the next level as a trailblazer in public service delivery and as an institution firmly focused on delivering on its mandate and mission,” KRA Commissioner General Githii Mburu said.

“At KRA, we are focused on building trust through facilitation so as to foster compliance with the existing tax and customs legislation and we have moved to align our Human Capital with the ideals actively.”
