An MP has likened President William Ruto's move to increase the number of his advisors to forming a parallel Cabinet.
Tetu lawmaker Geoffrey Wandeto, speaking during an interview with Citizen TV on Tuesday, May 6, said the high number of advisors surrounding him may mean President Ruto lacks confidence in his Cabinet. "If you look at the number of advisors and their roles, you can easily conclude that this is a parallel Cabinet.
As things stand now, we have technically two Cabinets - the official Cabinet and now the advisors," Wandeto said. "This says two things: the President does not trust his Cabinet ministers, and is probably looking for a fallback position.
Secondly, the President seems to know more than his principal secretaries and Cabinet secretaries.
