Kenya: Uhuru Stops La Mada Meetings by Cabinet Secretaries

President Uhuru Kenyatta has directed Cabinet Secretaries from Mt Kenya region to stop their night meetings at Hotel La Mada.

In a move aimed at quelling the unease in his ruling Jubilee Party, Uhuru directed that all government meetings “must be held within existing structures”.

The President is said to have asked the CSs to work within the various Cabinet sub-committees and involve elected leaders in “all matters related to development.”

They had to make a decision; you will see more action being taken against some senior people in government,” a highly placed source in the Presidency told the Star.

Uhuru, in addition, is said to have instructed that all Cabinet Secretaries, Principal Secretaries and other senior government officials work within the confines of Executive Order No.
