Moses Kuria Brushes Off Calls For His Impeachment & Removal From Office.

Public Service Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria has brushed off calls for his impeachment and removal from office.

Kuria, who has been embroiled in a series of public spats with Senators and journalists, said he is not fazed by the criticism and is focused on his job.

“Which hot seat? I am 52 years old, and out of which I have only been a minister for only one year, it is not a big deal,” he said in response to a question about his job security.

Kuria also denied allegations that he is disrespecting President William Ruto, saying he is a busy person working for the betterment of the country and would not want to engage in such discussions.

“I am not going to engage with those senators. They are still in session. Right now, the Senate is not a Senate, it is not a legislative house, it is a quasi-court, so out of respect for the laws of this country, let me not engage these people,” he added.

Kuria’s comments come after Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna called for his impeachment, saying he was embarrassing the Ruto administration.

Sifuna had accused Kuria of being “a national shame” and said that he should be removed from office for his “incorrigible” behavior.

“Mr. Speaker, even after your communication, the CS who should be asleep took to Twitter for another comment. Action must be taken,” Sifuna said.

“It casts very serious doubt on the appointing authority. First, he came for the media, and now he has come for the Senate.”

Senator Cheruyiot also weighed in on the matter, claiming that Kuria was an embarrassment to the Kenya Kwanza government and President William Ruto.

“Speaker, I agree with members of this house who have brought a motion of censure before you to discuss the conduct of this particular minister because every given opportunity, he has done nothing but embarrass the appointing authority,” he said.

“In fact, it is my submission, that the earlier CS Moses Kuria is let off his duties, the better for this administration because in every single day, in every action that he undertakes, he continues to embarrass the President and the People.”

Homa Bay Senator Otieno Kajwang also joined the chorus of criticism, calling Kuria an “embarrassment” to the country.

“He is an embarrassment, not just to the government, but to the Republic of Kenya and the entire East Africa,” Kajwang said.

Despite the mounting criticism, Kuria appears to be unfazed. He remains defiant and focused on his job, confident in his ability to weather the storm.
