Public Service Cabinet Secretary Geoffrey Ruku has been definitively ranked as the best-performing member of President William Ruto’s Broad-Based Government.

According to the latest independent polling data by Politrack Africa, Ruku has outpaced all his peers in citizen approval. This revelation proves that Kenyans are strictly prioritizing visible civil service reform and human capital development over traditional political grandstanding.

The Numbers Behind the Crown

The comprehensive survey, which verified votes from across the republic, awarded CS Ruku an impressive 11.8% of the total vote share. He was closely followed by Education Cabinet Secretary Julius Migos Ogamba at 11.0%.

Ruku’s mandate to transform the public service—specifically his recent push to shift civil servants to performance-based contracts—has clearly resonated with a populace weary of bureaucratic inefficiency and rampant absenteeism.

Driving Civil Service Accountability

The CS has not shied away from confronting the deeply entrenched lethargy within government institutions.

• Spearheading the transition from permanent to five-year renewable contracts.
• Aggressively tackling the culture of impunity and delayed public service.
• Establishing a citizen-centric, values-driven governance model.

These sweeping reforms are designed to save the taxpayer billions of Kenyan Shillings annually through optimized productivity.

A Mandate for Ruthless Efficiency

The poll results serve as a public mandate for Ruku to accelerate his sweeping administrative reforms.

"The Kenyan taxpayer is demanding immediate value, and we are fundamentally restructuring the government to deliver exactly that."
