Former Public Service, Performance and Delivery Moses Kuria has reacted to the move by President William Ruto to dissolve his entire cabinet.

Speaking on Kameme FM, Kuria said he is always ready for anything.

“Nothing scares me… I’m always ready,” the former CS said in response to how he received the news.

He went on to say that everything is in God’s control and he is doing fine.

During the interview, he jokingly asked for a job to supply eggs, porridge and tea at the radio station.

Kuria was among the first people in the 21 dismissed members of the Cabinet to change his social media Bio to indicate that he was no longer a Cabinet secretary.

On Thursday, President William Ruto dissolved his entire cabinet sending home all Cs and the Attorney General.

Only the Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi, who also holds the Foreign and Diaspora Affairs CS survived the purge.

The Head of State said the new cabinet will be named after extensive consultations across all sectors.

He added that with the CS out of office, ministry accounting officers among other officials will now take charge of operations.

"I will immediately engage in extensive consultations across different sectors and political formations, to set up a broad-based government that will assist me in accelerating and expediting the necessary, urgent and irreversible, implementation of radical programmes to deal with the burden of debt, raise domestic resources, expanding job opportunities, eliminate wastage and unnecessary duplication of a multiplicity of government agencies and slay the dragon of corruption consequently making the government lean, inexpensive, effective and efficient," Ruto said.

"The operations of government will continue uninterrupted under the guidance of Principal Secretaries and other relevant officials."
