Mwangi Kiunjuri, Rashid Echesa and the Ministers who will be fired after Cabinet reshuffle

Cabinet secretaries are set to resume duties on Monday after the Christmas recess amid fears of a looming reshuffle.

Also set to resume duties are Principal secretaries, who were sent on the “compulsory” recess alongside their bosses through a letter by Head of Public Service Joseph Kinyua on December 18.

This will be preceded by a meeting between President Uhuru Kenyatta and opposition leader Raila Odinga in Mombasa Saturday.

But who is facing the chop? Who is likely to go home?

Among the ministries which have been in the news for all the wrong reasons include Education (Amina Mohamed), Agriculture, Sports headed by Rashid Echesa and Petroleum and Mining (John Munyes).

Recently, the President apologized to Kenyans over the confusion in the roll-out of the new curriculum just days after Ms Mohamed told the Senate Education committee that it was not implementable for the time being.

He said the curriculum is important as it will cater for the needs of the future generations

“This curriculum is important because it holds what our future generations need,” he said.

Mr Kiunjuri is on the spot over the myriad corruption scandals at his ministry — maize and supply of fake fertilisers to farmers.

Although the scandals happened before he was appointed to the ministry early last year, the President has not hesitated to remind him to ensure that traders who conspired with the NCPB management to pocket at least Sh8 billion meant for maize farmers are brought to book.

Other than being accused of mishandling the National Amputee Football Team’s World Cup trip to Mexico last year as well as delayed payment of allowances to players, Mr Echesa has been on the spot over his educational qualifications.
