NAIROBI, Kenya, Sept 20 – The Kenya Electricity Transmission Company (Ketraco) has appointed Kipkemoi Kibias as acting managing director and chief executive officer following the exit of John Mativo.

Kibias, who previously served as General Manager for System Operation and Power Management, takes over after Mativo’s nearly three-year tenure at the helm. Mativo was confirmed as CEO in April 2023.

Before joining Ketraco, Kibias held various roles at Kenya Power, including Regional Manager and County Manager.

Ketraco Chair Mohamed Abdi said the board made the appointment in consultation with the Office of the Chief of Staff and the Ministry of Energy and
