Cabinet and Principal Secretaries' performance will be gauged on their implementation of President William Ruto's manifesto in a radical plan to keep government officials on toes.

The CSs and PSs will, for the next two weeks, negotiate their performance contracts, which will feature their key performance indicators with time-bound targets, a move that the President hopes will help enhance efficiency and effectiveness in his broad-based government.
