[PHOTOS] President Ruto Chairs First ‘Broad-based’ Cabinet Meeting

President William Ruto held the first ‘broad-based’ Cabinet meeting at State House Nairobi on Tuesday, September 17.

This was the first cabinet meeting after the swearing-in of the new cabinet members in August 2024.  

Prime CS Musalia Mudavadi was, however, conspicuously missing during the meeting.

The Prime CS is out of the country on official duty.

On Thursday, July 11, President Ruto was forced to dissolve his cabinet following nationwide protests by Gen Z and millennials.   

The President said he had acted after an extensive appraisal of the Cabinet’s performance.

“During this process, the operations of government will continue uninterrupted under the guidance of Principal Secretaries and other relevant officials,” Ruto said while dismissing his Cabinet. 

After dissolving the Cabinet, the President would on Friday, July 19 at State House Nairobi, announce the formation of a ‘broad-based’ government starting with 11 nominees.
