President William Ruto is set to announce a significant reshuffle of his Cabinet, a move aimed at revitalizing his administration amid growing political and economic challenges.
State House confirmed on Wednesday that the President has been deliberating on the changes and is expected to make the official announcement soon. “The President has been thinking about reshuffling his Cabinet, and it is expected that it will happen,” a senior government official stated.
The reshuffle comes at a critical time when Ruto’s government is under increasing pressure to address economic hardships, public dissatisfaction, and internal political wrangles. Analysts suggest that underperforming ministers could be replaced, while key allies may be rewarded with strategic positions.
Sources indicate that the reshuffle could affect ministries handling finance, trade, education, and security—areas that have faced intense public scrutiny. Additionally, there is speculation that Ruto may introduce fresh faces to his administration, possibly drawing from opposition ranks in a bid to consolidate political support.
The changes could also be influenced by the recent anti-government protests led by youth movements demanding better governance. By adjusting his Cabinet, Ruto may be seeking to regain public trust and demonstrate his commitment to delivering on campaign promises.
As Kenyans await the official announcement, the reshuffle is expected to shape the government’s policy direction and political landscape in the coming months. All eyes are now on State House to see who will be affected and how the changes will impact the country’s leadership.
