“Before December, there are many things you will see, because the competence and incompetence of Cabinet Secretaries has been seen."

National Assembly Majority Whip Sylvanus Osoro now says there will be another cabinet reshuffle before December.

Speaking on Thursday, October 5, Osoro said the competent and incompetent Cabinet Secretaries are now known based on their capabilities.

The South Mugirango MP also noted that Principal Secretaries will be reshuffled before December to increase efficiency in the government.

“Before December, there are many things you will see, because the competence and incompetence of Cabinet Secretaries has been seen, along with their capacity and load. There are those who have a heavier burden than their capacity, and there are those who have a greater capacity. So, before December, you will see many things about reshuffling, because even the Permanent Secretaries were not affected much,” Osoro stated.
