[PCS] Ruto, in a statement on Thursday, June 19, acknowledged that the path to transforming the country has been challenging and has required tough decisions, decisions he says he stands by. "We are here to reflect on where we came from, where we are and agree on the future. We should know that failure is not an option," Ruto said. "We remain focused as we build synergies that will spur our economic growth." Ruto chairs third Cabinet retreat in Nairobi. [PCS] "We are making significant progress in the journey of uplifting the wellbeing of our citizens. The bold, radical and strategic policy and administrative interventions in economy, education, health, housing, job creation and infrastructure development made by the Kenya Kwanza Administration under the stewardship of President William Ruto are bearing fruit," said Kindiki. Secretary to the Cabinet Mercy Wanjau described the retreat as a moment to take stock, evaluate impact, and chart the way forward. "The upcoming third National Executive Retreat will provide a moment to take stock of progress, evaluate impact and make informed decisions about the path ahead. The question of the moment will be; what difference have our efforts made in the lives of Kenyans, and where should efforts be recast to enhance delivery?"

The public outrage and the tension in the country follows the death of Albert Ojwang, a teacher, in the police custody and the shooting of Boniface Kariuki, a mask vendor during Tuesday's protests. Leaders present include Attorney-General Dorcas Oduor, Energy, Health, Environment, Gender and Labour Cabinet Secretaries Opiyo Wandayi, Deborah Barasa fLee Kinyanjui, Hannah Cheptumo, and Alfred Mutua, among others.
