In a shocking revelation, UDA MP has claimed that President Ruto has not one, but two cabinets!Tetu MP Geoffrey Wandeto has raised concerns about the increasing number of presidential advisors, hinting that this move might indicate a lack of trust in the official Cabinet.
During an interview on Citizen TV, Wandeto expressed his suspicions that President Ruto might be secretly forming a parallel Cabinet to overshadow the existing one. This move, according to Wandeto, could imply that Ruto is seeking to lead without fully involving his appointed Cabinet Secretaries and Principal Secretaries.
The implications of this alleged parallel Cabinet are not just political but also financial. Wandeto highlighted the burden on Kenyans who are already struggling with high taxes. He called upon Parliament to step in and amend the Constitution to set a cap on the number of advisors a President can appoint.
What’s even more concerning is the rapid increase in the number of advisors from seven to fourteen in just ten months, despite Ruto’s previous promise to halve the number of advisors. The recent appointments of prominent figures like Prof Makau Mutua and Jaoko Oburu Odinga have raised eyebrows and fueled speculation about the motives behind these decisions.
The public outcry over these appointments is palpable, with many questioning the necessity and political agenda behind them. Wandeto’s call for accountability and a fixed limit on advisors resonates with a growing number of frustrated Kenyans who feel that the government is expanding instead of streamlining its operations.
