Reports suggest that the Head of State is planning a major reshuffle that could see several Cabinet Secretaries and advisers lose their positions.
According to insiders, Ruto wants to remove officials who were closely linked to the late Raila Odinga and the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM).
These officials joined the government when the Broad-Based arrangement was formed to promote unity after Raila’s death.
However, recent reports say the President now wants a team made up only of his loyal supporters.
Some ministers are said to have been involved in internal conflicts and disagreements about policy direction.
Analysts believe that by reshuffling his Cabinet, the President wants to restore discipline and ensure his administration speaks with one voice.
Political observers also say the move could be a sign that Ruto is preparing early for the 2027 elections.
By surrounding himself with loyal and energetic leaders, he hopes to rebuild his image and connect better with ordinary Kenyans.
The reshuffle, if confirmed, could also help the President cut ties with those still seen as part of the old opposition network.
However, State House has not confirmed these claims. Government Spokesperson Isaac Mwaura said that only the President can announce such decisions.
Many Kenyans have reacted differently to the news. Some say a reshuffle is necessary to improve service delivery, while others think it will only create new political divisions.
Social media platforms are already full of discussions about who might be fired and who could join the new Cabinet.
