During the swearing-in ceremony of Sakaja as the Governor, Badi committed to a smooth transition and eventually transfer of all the functions that he was overseeing.
Gen Badi reported that NMS had accomplished their tasks as assigned by former President Uhuru Kenyatta and that they are ready to hand over.
He urged Mr Sakaja to carry on with ongoing projects which were being undertaken by the agency.
Mr Sakaja on his part described NMS as a cocktail of hits and misses, noting that they have succeeded in some sectors and failed in others.
