President William Ruto has continued to defend his administration’s move to form a broad-based government.
Speaking at the start of his 3-day tour of Nyamira and Kisii Counties, President Ruto clarified that the government has not entered into any coalition agreement with ODM while noting that they have only agreed to work together to push the country forward. He said the arrangement is not guided by selfish, personal or political party interests but by the well-being of the people of Kenya.
The President commended ODM for agreeing to work with the government for the sake of driving the country’s development agenda to the next level.
He urged the Executive, Legislature and Judiciary to work in harmony for the interest and benefit of Kenya.
Earlier on, the president urged the new Cabinet Secretaries and Principal Secretaries to make the people of Kenya their main priority.
Addressing Cabinet and Principal Secretaries at the State House Nairobi, President Ruto urged the respective CSs to ensure they prioritise the needs of Kenyans in efforts to boost development in the country.
On his part, Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua urged the Cabinet to put in hard work and embrace ethics as they embark on their journey to serve Kenyans.
