Buchere Philip Brightone, who received a posthumous Chief of the Order of the Burning Spear, has been reallocated to the Order of the Grand Warrior (O.G.W.) award.
Ruto also moved Odera Millicent Anyango from the Chief of the Order of the Burning Spear (C.B.S.) to the Head of State’s Commendation Awards (HSC).
