Financial risks arising from budget shortfalls and funding gaps for programmes supported by development partners, weak monitoring and evaluation systems, and indiscipline in project and programme execution have been listed as some of the teething issues affecting service delivery in President William Ruto's administration.
In a communiqué released by Ruto's office, the President listed ten 'systemic risks', including those mentioned above, that were said to be hampering the effective execution of his manifesto.
Even so, the Ruto-led administration introduced 20 measures aimed at strengthening government service delivery to enhance performance and deepen public confidence in its ability to meet the people's needs and expectations.
Weak vertical and horizontal collaborative governance, a silo approach in the implementation of government initiatives, and litigation, legal, and bureaucratic bottlenecks were also listed as challenges facing Ruto's administration.
