  • Speaking in a Cabinet meeting held at State House Tuesday, President William Ruto read the riot act to Cabinet Secretaries and Principal Secretaries saying that wastage and corruption will not be condoned in his administration. This comes hot on the heels of the sacking of Public Health Principal Secretary Josephine Mburu over a Sh4 billion mosquito net scandal. 
  • President William Ruto nominated the Head of Fiscal Affairs in the Council of Economic Advisors and former Treasury Principal Secretary, Dr Kamau Thugge, for appointment as the tenth Governor of the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK). The former IMF official is now awaiting Parliament’s nod to fully assume his role as the tenth CBK Governor. 
  • Former Sports CS Rashid Echesa is back in the government. This is after President William Ruto appointed him to head the Kenya Water Towers Agency Board.
