For the one year and seven months President William Ruto has held the reins of power, he has constantly been scratching his head formulating measures to help him achieve a 35 per cent wage bill-to-revenue ratio.

In what is seen as his first step to achieve his three-year master plan, his Cabinet recently approved the reduction in payment of intern doctors to Sh70,000 down from Sh200,000 monthly.
