Karangi joins the powerful National Security Council, which Kibaki chairs. Its members are Vice-President Kalonzo Musyoka, Internal Security Minister, George Saitoti, and his PS Francis Kimemia, Defence Minister Yusuf Haji, PS Foreign Affairs – currently held by Patrick Wamoto in an acting capacity.
Thuita Mwangi was the PS until he stepped aside to pave way for corruption investigations. Gichangi and Iteere are also members of the National Security Council.
It was also the first time that a Kenyan from Central Province took up the top military post
