An agitated President William Ruto on Thursday, November 28, put on notice directors of key agencies within his government who he claims have been undermining government efforts in the digitisation of government services.
The Head of State accused the officials of being involved in the likely provision of public funds, arguing there is no transparency in their dealings.
Speaking during the First Anniversary of the eCitizen Directorate, at the Kenyatta International Convention Centre (KICC) in Nairobi, the President revealed that the 34 agencies were yet to comply with his Presidential directive on onboarding key services they offer on the digital platform.
”These entities are yet to comply on my directive to comply with my directive that government services in their departments,’’ Ruto stated.
Ruto consequently gave the agencies one week to comply with the directive or face the axe. ”They have one week to comply, otherwise, they can make use of the door,” Ruto warned.
The visibly agitated President listed all the 34 state agencies that were yet to comply with the directives, maintaining that they were promoting revenue loopholes.
