As the nation holds its breath ahead of protests planned for tomorrow, some 20 wealthy Kenyans face the daunting task of helping steer the country in the right direction. 

However, the millionaire men and women still have to overcome a hurdle before appointment to President William Ruto's Cabinet, which, if history is to provide lessons, is assured. 

The National Assembly's Committee on Appointments meets today to consider the appointment of the 20 nominees to the Cabinet after they concluded vetting.
