Public Service Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria has said he is ready to face consequences if the current Cabinet is dissolved.
His statement follows calls from Senators for President William Ruto to dissolve the Cabinet to tackle the country's challenges.
"If the jury says that Moses Kuria has to go home, I will be the first to say yes we go home, but it is also a high time that we also deliver," he said.
Speaking on KTN News on Wednesday, Kuria maintained that it is time for all those in leadership to deliver on their mandate as expected by Kenyans.
"It is about time we execute, it is not just about talking and big plans, I think whatever has happened now is a good window to open and see, are we quick to execute?" Kuria posed.
"We are short of time, we can't wait one single day all these bureaucracies, so what we need to have is sharper focus on delivery so that we can be able to deliver results for Kenyans," he said.
Kuria criticised the past practices of placing personal interests over public service, urging a change in mindset or face the consequences.
"I believe in organic, heartfelt austerity measures. We must show it is possible and welcome new ideas," he noted.
On Wednesday, senators led by Boni Khalwale called on President William Ruto to overhaul the Cabinet.
The senators called on President Ruto to take drastic measures, including dissolving his Cabinet, sacking Inspector General of Police Japhet Koome, and instituting sweeping reforms across government.
They demanded lifestyle audits for all state officers, a comprehensive audit of public debt, and a significant reduction in the number of advisers and other staff in the administration.
The lawmakers' calls for reform came as President Ruto himself acknowledged that his Cabinet "could have done better" in helping him run the government.
In a recent interview, the President said he would be doing "soul searching" on how to move the country forward.
