Lands Cabinet Secretary Farida Karoney has poached two senior editors from her former employer - Royal Media Services.

Karoney is reported to have picked Peter Opondo and Nixon Nganga and awarded them senior positions at Arthi House.

Opondo previously served as an editorial consultant for Royal Media Services while Ng'ang'a served in the same company as Managing Editor.

The two quit their jobs last month, just weeks after the Lands CS was approved for the Cabinet position.

It is not clear the exact roles Opondo and Nga'ng'a will be undertaking at the Ministry of Lands but they are largely expected to serve in the Communications Department.

Since taking office, Karoney has introduced the new Lands Information Management System (LIMS) which was rolled out on Tuesday.

LIMS is expected to enhance service delivery at Arhi Houses by allowing the public to carry out various transactions through online platforms.
