President Ruto puts 34 CEOs of government agencies on notice for failing to comply with the e-Citizen directive

President Ruto puts 34 CEOs of government agencies on notice for failing to comply with the e-Citizen directive.

President William Ruto has put 34 Chief Executive Officers of government agencies on notice for failing to adhere to the directive of digitising all operations through the e-citizen platform to enhance transparency. 

Speaking during the first anniversary of e-Citizen Directorate in Nairobi, the president listed the CEOs and ordered them to comply with the directive within one week or else face stern action including dismissal. 

Ruto pointed out that such companies defied a direct order by soliciting funds through unscrupulous means. 

“These entities have yet to comply with my directive that their services, revenue payments must be on e-citizen so that treasury can follow on the revenues been collected by government. They have one week to comply.

Otherwise, they know what to do, they can make use of the door, it’s as simple as that,” Ruto noted. 

Further, the head of state warned State agencies that are on the e-citizen platform but still use alternative means of payment to pocket funds. 

He ordered for a list to be drafted within three days of such State agencies using underhanded means to loot funds. 

“We still have State agencies that are on the platform but once in a while, they retreat to use alternative means of payment including games with some banks,” he warned. 

“I want a record in the last three months of State agencies on the platforms but have decided to use other means with grey spaces so that we can take action against people undermining transparency. I want that list on my desk in the next three days.”

Ruto emphasised that he would enforce his promise of enhancing operations in government that are transparent and credible. 

“When I campaigned, I made a fundamental statement, I said in my administration there would be no money to steal and part of that journey is through digitisation. Through this, we connect service delivery to revenue collection,” he asserted.
