The mass resignation of principal secretaries came after pressure from above threatened to tighten their belts and do what the government ordered.
The move has prompted several principal secretaries to put down their tools and pack the bus back home in order to save their faces.
Several PSs have requested relief from their duties. The head of the civil service has received the letters.
According to sources privy to information at the state house, President William Ruto is considering dismissing the entire PS’s team to avoid the negative image of mass resignations.
Sources privy to the information say that the president will soon send the entire team home after receiving calls of resignation.
The head of the civil service had told the head of state that mass resignations of government employees would bring shame and embarrassment, hence the need to fire all the team.
