President William Ruto has promised to address the opulence and extravagance displayed by some state officers, particularly Cabinet Secretaries and MPs.

In an interview with the media at State House on Sunday, the president promised Kenyans that they would see changes in the future, including reduced government spending and the elimination of unconstitutional offices.

"I promise you, watch this space. Going forward you will see changes because we must do something about opulence and extravagance. We are going to take measures that will put us in the right place," Ruto said.

Addressing concerns about unconstitutional offices such as CASs and the First Lady, Ruto stated that his government will eliminate them beginning Monday in order to reduce government spending.

"Offices such as that of the First Lady have existed before, but from tomorrow we are going to do away with that and other offices so that we can check our spending. On CASs, the court declared themselves on that and we have respected that. We are not going to appoint an CS until our economy can sustain that," Ruto added. 

The president was responding to concerns about a group of government officials walking around in flashy clothes and carrying wads of cash to harambees.

He also revealed that he has spoken with UDA MPs, who are considering doing away with harambees, particularly in churches.

"We are actually going to do away with harambees, because when a junior state officers donates Ksh20 million in a harambee, there is something fundamentally wrong. That is wrong," Ruto asserted.

Concerns have been raised about MPs like Kapseret's Oscar Sudi distributing millions of shillings in church harambees.

Sudi is a close ally of Ruto.
