Her appointment has been welcomed by the ICTA board leadership, who expressed confidence in her abilities and the contribution she is expected to make.
The appointment follows a month after Ntutu paid tribute to her late husband.
On Wednesday, March 4, during the memorial service for the victims of the Nandi helicopter crash that claimed Ng’eno and five others, she remembered him as a supportive and loving husband.
She described Ng’eno as the pillar of her life, who stood by her as they navigated life together and built a family.
Ntutu also reflected on his laughter, saying it had the power to brighten even the dullest days and make life feel more joyful.
She also remembered Ng’eno as a devoted father to their two children, always present in their lives and proud of them.
Ntutu described the loss as leaving a profound void, likening it to losing the music of her youth, but affirmed that their love and family would endure beyond death.
The couple married in 2018 and were blessed with two children.
