Nominated Senator Tabitha Mutinda has been elected to serve as a member of the Board of Governance of the Parliamentary Network on the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF). 

In an official communication to the Senate on Wednesday afternoon, Speaker Amason Kingi lauded the Senator for her appointment which will commence on October 13, 2025, during the Parliamentary engagements at the 2025 Annual Meetings of the World Bank and IMF. 

As a board member, Mutinda will be tasked with representing the East African region in setting the strategic agenda and provide guidance for the activities of the Parliamentary Network. 

"I have a communication to make on the election of Sen. Maureen Tabitha Mutinda, MP, to serve as a Member of the Board of the Parliamentary Network on the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for the term 2025 - 2027," Kingi stated.

"I take this opportunity to congratulate the Honourable Senator on my own behalf and on behalf of the Senate, on her election, and urge all Honourable Senators to accord her the necessary support as she undertakes this important role on behalf of our region."

Launched in 2000, the Parliamentary Network is a platform for MPs from over 140 countries to engage with the World Bank Group and IMF on global issues such as transparency, accountability and macroeconomic challenges. 

With a secretariat in Paris, the platform aims to advocate for increased accountability and transparency in International Financial Institutions and multilateral development financing.
