David Mugonyi has been appointed director general of the Communications Authority of Kenya (CA).

“Mugonyi brings a wealth of experience and expertise to his new role, having amassed 23 years of distinguished service across the public service, media, and strategic communications,” said CA board chairperson Mary Mungai.

Mugonyi succeeds Ezra Chiloba, who resigned from the office in October 2023 after being suspended for alleged misuse of position and conflict of interest.

“We look forward to working closely with Mr. Mugonyi as the organisation continues to play a central role in shaping and regulating the communications landscape in Kenya,” said Mungai.
