President William Ruto has found himself in a dilemma as he seeks to reconstitute his Cabinet with a recent opinion poll showing Kenyans support retention of three former minsters. “A significant proportion of 40 per cent of Kenyans felt that performing CSs should be re-appointed,” the Trends and Insight For Africa study shows.
