Defence CS Duale says he’s ready to resign if President William Ruto feels he has let him down.
Defence Cabinet Secretary Aden Duale on Wednesday urged President William Ruto to take stern action against Cabinet Secretaries he felt had let him down.
Speaking during an interview on Citizen TV, the CS stated that he was ready to resign in case the Head of State felt that he was among the non-performing ministers.
CS Duale while insisting on the matter, called on the president to review the performance of all the Cabinet Secretaries and make the final decision on whom to dismiss and retain.
“If the President feels I have let him down as a Minister of Defence, I want him to do the right thing,” Duale stated.
“Not only start with me and all the rest who have let him down in the interest of the Kenyans and tell us to step aside, I will have a new team. I am ready,” he added.
According to the Defence CS, it was the right time for the Head of State to make changes, especially within the cabinet.
While exuding confidence, CS Duale reiterated his commitment to working for the people of Kenya, noting that despite serving in different capacities within the government, he had never let anyone down.

“Anybody he feels is baggage and he feels should come out of the bus he is driving, he should do it, including me, Aden Duale,” CS Duale insisted.
“I have served the people of Kenya as a member of Parliament, as a leader of a majority and for the last two years as the Cabinet Minister for Defence,” he added.
CS Duale’s sentiments came barely hours after senators called for an overhaul of President William Ruto’s cabinet.
The senators led by Kakamega legislator Boni Khalwale, called for the disbandment of the office of Prime Cabinet Secretary which is currently being held by CS Musalia Mudavadi.
“Mr President, dissolve and reconstitute the Cabinet. Disband offices like the Prime Cabinet Secretary that are not constitutionally mandated in Kenya,” Khalwale urged.
