Wednesday, June 12, 2024 - President William Ruto has reportedly ordered senior state house officials to pay former President Uhuru Kenyatta his retirement benefits and all perks that he is entitled to.
This is
after Ruto and Uhuru held a conversation on Tuesday after the former President’s
spokesperson Kanze Dena claimed that her boss was yet to receive his benefits
even after retiring in 2022.
After the
conversation, Ruto sanctioned the
creation of a team led by the Head of Public Service, Felix Koskei, to look
into the matter with the aim of a conclusive resolution.
"This morning, President
William Ruto had a conversation with his predecessor in office, the 4th
President, President Uhuru Kenyatta, regarding concerns about facilitating the
functioning of the retired President’s office," State House spokesman,
Hussein Mohamed wrote on X.
Among the issues the team will
handle include the questions of Uhuru's office location and the onboarding of
his staff onto the state's payroll.
