Senior Economic Advisor to President William Ruto, Moses Kuria, has resigned from his position in the government.
In a statement on X, Kuria said he has officially resigned from government, ending a nearly three-year stint in President William Ruto’s administration.
“This evening I have met my boss and my friend, President William Ruto. The President has graciously accepted my decision to resign from government,” Kuria wrote.
Kuria, who is a former MP for Gatundu South, thanked President Ruto for the opportunity to serve in various capacities, including as Cabinet Secretary for Investments, Trade and Industry, Cabinet Secretary for Public Service, and most recently as Senior Economic Advisor.
“I thank President Ruto for having given me an opportunity to serve as Cabinet Secretary for Investments, Trade and Industry for 11 months, Public Service, Delivery and Performance Management for 9 months and Senior Economic Advisor for the last 10 months.”
Kuria praised the Kenya Kwanza administration’s progress under the Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda, stating that it was a plan he and President Ruto had developed together during the 2022 campaign.
“As I move on to pursue personal interests, I am proud of the work the President and I did to implement the Bottom Up Economic Transformation Agenda, which I designed together with the President as our 2022 Electoral Platform. Long Live Kenya.”
Kuria has also expressed support for former President Uhuru Kenyatta’s return to the Jubilee Party leadership in recent weeks, describing the development as vital in calming the country’s rising political temperatures.
