President Ruto held a Cabinet meeting at State House, Nairobi on Tuesday with the meeting described as potentially the ‘last supper’ for seven Cabinet secretaries.

If this anticipated lineup goes through, 15 principal secretaries will lose their jobs and 43 parastatal chiefs will be affected as a result of their roles being scrapped.

Treasury is set to profile parastatals with overlapping mandates as some parastatals will be relocated to parent ministries as departments.
