Mwala MP Vincent Musau Kawaya is now the highest ranking Kamba official of governing party United Democratic Alliance (UDA).
He assumes the position of Organizing Secretary, a position that is a far cry from that of party Chairman which has been vacated by Johnson Muthama.
Though party posts are ordinarily hotly contested, UDA has nevertheless appointed its top leadership.
EmbU Governor Cecily Mbarire succeeds Muthama as party chairman.
Muthama has taken up a slot of Member of the Parliamentary Service Commission and will effectively stay away from the centre of UDA decision making.
An acceptance statement for Kawaya seen by The Anchor partly read, "I accept my new role as the UDA National Organizing Secretary with a lot of humbleness..."
Also key among the changes ratified following a meeting in State House earlier is former Kakamega Senator Cleophas Malala taking up the role of the party's Secretary General.
