President Elect Ruto Unveils Some Of The Changes He Will Introduce In The Government
In his first meeting with Kenya Kwanza elected leaders, President-elect William Ruto announced a number of changes and a new method of running the government.
In contrast to the current requirement that CSs appear before House committees, Ruto stated that he had agreed with the newly elected Members of Parliament to amend the Standing Orders to require Cabinet Secretaries to answer questions on the floor of the house.
“We are going to amend standing orders to make it possible for cabinet secretaries to answer questions on the floor of Parliament. It is not enough for them to go to parliamentary committees,” he said.
Additionally, the president-elect stated that state employees will not be used for any political activities, creating a distinct distinction between government employees and politicians.

Former Jubilee Party Secretary General Raphael Tuju served as Cabinet Secretary under President Uhuru Kenyatta, where he claimed his responsibility was to coordinate the party’s platform within the executive branch.
In the past, Ruto has also accused the president of allowing his CSs to engage in politics and of using administrative staff to further his political objectives.
“The public service is going to be an important tool in the delivery of services. It will be professional and will not have a preference for communities or political affiliation. We expect them to serve people equally without favouring anyone.
“Political work will be carried out by politicians and not members of the provincial administration. This is the only way to govern. We want them to remain independent and work for all Kenyans despite their affiliations. They should serve Kenyans equally,” Ruto said.

Additionally, the president-elect announced that the Kenya Kwanza coalition would launch a mentoring program for aspiring politicians to help them become more effective in their positions.
He also made a suggestion that the current administration had made it challenging for him and many other Kenyans to speak on the phone about sensitive matters.
