As reports emerge that President William Ruto might dismiss a section of the Principal Secretaries, Bomet Senator Hillary Sigei has said there is no such plan.
Speaking on Tuesday during an interview with Citizen TV, he said a dismissal or reshuffle is not on the table.
He pointed out that the President had on Monday morning met with his Cabinet and Principal Secretaries at the State House.
"I have not heard that one of the agenda items was a consideration of who will stay and who will go where and when. In fact, what we're getting is that the conversation was a bonding session for the newly appointed CSs and the presidential status of the now broad-based government," he said.
He said the government is focusing on settling down from June 25, 2024, when the Gen Z protesters stormed Parliament.
Sigei said the country's leadership was getting back the time lost during the two months of the protests which resulted in damage to property and loss of lives.
"So I don't think that issue is yet to be in the cards as of now because we're looking at settling down from where we came from two months ago and that is what is in everyone's mind including the President, I don't think it is one of the things on the table," he said.
Unconfirmed reports indicate that President Ruto is targeting Principal Secretaries and parastatal chiefs to replace some with individuals from Raila Odinga's Orange Democratic Movement.
This is in a bid to continue the broad-based government initiative.
The reports say Raila is pushing for a share of at least 25 positions
Other reports claims that President Ruto will dismiss at least 15 PSs as he consolidates some state departments.
On Monday, during the meeting at the State House, Ruto directed the secretaries to avoid corruption, be efficient and prioritise programs that will create jobs for the young people.
He urged them to live by the oath of office they took.
He noted that they 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 programmes and policies that will transform the lives of Kenyans and move the country forward," he said.
"Let us not waste this golden opportunity."
Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua called on the leaders to embrace each other because they may need to work together in future.
The DP said that in reference to the broad-based government formed by President William Ruto.
He said that regardless of political party affiliation, Kenyans must learn to embrace each other.
"... I appreciate that Kenya is great and we must all learn to live with each other," DP Gachagua siad.
