Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has broken his silence after President William Ruto dismissed his entire Cabinet on Thursday.
According to Gachagua, the president has his full support as he seeks a new team to help deliver on his agenda. Gachagua emphasized that Ruto should look for Cabinet Secretaries who are not arrogant and who will refrain from engaging in politics.
He stated that the President must assemble a capable team focused solely on assisting the President and prioritizing service delivery to the people of Kenya above their own interests.
“Mr. President, we support you 100 percent in the steps you have taken to dissolve the cabinet, to reconstitute it afresh, and look for Cabinet Secretaries who will help you run the government,” Gachagua said.
“Ministers who are not arrogant and boastful, ministers who will not engage in politics. Those who will be there to assist you, together with us, to move the country forward. You get a good team that will create efficiency and harmony, and that will put the people of Kenya before their personal interests.”
The Deputy President spoke on Saturday when he accompanied Ruto to the launch of Kipsoen Technical and Vocational College in Elgeyo Marakwet County. Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi was also present.
