President Ruto Retains 5 Cabinet Secretaries

President William Ruto has put forward five former Cabinet Secretaries for positions in his newly expanded government.

This decision aligns with Ruto’s pledge to establish an inclusive and transformative administration designed to boost Kenya’s economic growth and development.

The five appointees include Kithure Kindiki, Aden Duale, Alice Wahome, Soipan Tuya, Davis Chirchir, and Rebecca Miano, who has been chosen as the Attorney General.

Kithure Kindiki is set to return to the Ministry of the Interior and National Administration, a role he previously occupied.

Alice Wahome will oversee the Ministry of Lands, Public Works, Housing, and Urban Development.

Soipan Tuya is appointed to the Ministry of Environment, Climate Change, and Forestry, while Davis Chirchir, who has previously worked in the Ministry of Energy, is assigned to the Ministry of Roads and Transport, succeeding Kipchumba Murkomen. Aden Duale will head the Ministry of Defence.

President Ruto reiterated his dedication to forming a government that meets the expectations and needs of Kenyans.

“I committed to deeply reflecting on the issues highlighted by the people of Kenya, engaging in extensive consultations on the future direction, and developing a broad-based Government that will leverage our country’s vast potential to drive economic transformation and inclusive growth,” Ruto stated.

He continued, “I am initiating the creation of a new, inclusive cabinet to help propel the essential and irreversible transformation of our nation. I am nominating this first group of 11 individuals for consideration and approval by the National Assembly for roles as Cabinet Secretaries and Attorney General.”

These nominees will need to pass vetting and approval by the National Assembly before officially assuming their roles.

The Cabinet reshuffle follows Ruto’s recent dissolution of his previous Cabinet, with a promise to focus on public needs in his new strategy.
