Public Service CS Moses Kuria denies reports of a frosty relationship with his Gender counterpart Aisha Jumwa.
Speaking in a media interview, Kuria refuted the claims insisting that the two share a cordial working relationship that extends outside cabinet meetings.

“So I am vested in this particular space, and I talk about MCSK,” CS Kuria explained.
The fallout reports came about after CS Kuria announced that the government was planning to take over the mandate of paying artists their royalties from Collective Management Organisations (CMOs) which he said will going forward be done via eCitizen.
CS Aisha Jumwa, however, would later claim in a statement that it was within her authority to make such a proclamation.
CS Jumwa corrected him, saying that discussions were still ongoing and that an official announcement will be made after they were finalized.
