Public Service Cabinet Secretary (CS) Moses Kuria has shed light on the challenges and expectations of working alongside President William Ruto in Kenya’s leadership.
Known for his close ties to Ruto, Kuria emphasizes that collaborating with the President is no easy task, especially for those inclined to slack off.
According to Kuria, Ruto is a hands-on leader who maintains a stringent approach to staying informed about developments in every ministry.
The President’s work habits include early mornings, late nights, and a keen interest in monitoring progress across all sectors.

“Working with President Ruto is not easy if you are lazy.
The Head of State is a hands-on person who seeks to check on progress in all sectors every time,” Kuria stated in an interview with The Standard.
“He wakes up very early and sleeps late, and during all this time, you can expect a call, especially when he is trying to clarify something.”
Highlighting a recent Cabinet meeting on December 14, Kuria described a backlog of critical issues that required prompt attention.
These meetings, he noted, have become routine, summoned by Ruto whenever urgent matters need immediate resolution.
“We had 29 issues that we needed to clear off, and he insists that the day’s business is cleared before you break out,” Kuria added.
He recounted a 14-hour marathon meeting at Ruto’s home, focusing on how the government would address its responsibilities.
Ruto emphasizes the importance of not letting down the citizens who entrusted the government with their votes.
Regarding the challenging cost of living, Kuria reiterated that the government has been compelled to make tough decisions to revive the struggling economy.
He likened Kenya to a seriously ailing patient requiring intensive care and surgery.
“No one likes the surgeon’s knife, but they get happy when they are healed.
Kenya was like a patient who was seriously ailing but had a diagnosis,” Kuria noted.
“When we entered, we found that the patient needed to be at the ICU for an operation.”
