President William Ruto has convened his first meeting with the new Cabinet.
The meeting at State House, Nairobi was also attended by his deputy Rigathi Gachagua, and Principal Secretaries from various ministries.
The Head of State used the opportunity to urge the state officers to avoid corruption while calling on them to prioritize programs that will create jobs for the youths.
“We have formed a broad-based government to unite the country and rally all Kenyans behind the country's transformation journey. I call on those selected to serve in the Cabinet to focus on the implementation of programs and policies that will transform the lives of Kenyans and move the country forward,” he stated.
