Amb. Serem brings a wealth of experience and expertise in government administration. Prior to her appointment, she served as the Kenyan Ambassador to China and was the chairperson of the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC). Amb. Serem replaces Mr Ntoros Baari Ole Senteu, who served for three years.
Speaking at Postbank headquarters during her official assumption of office, Amb. Serem noted that she is delighted to return to Postbank and is looking forward to a rigorous three-year term.
