On Thursday morning, Mudavadi conveyed his deep appreciation for the appointment and extended his thanks to the Head of State for entrusting him with this augmented responsibility.
He stated, “I am deeply honored and humbled to have been entrusted by His Excellency President William Ruto with an expanded role in the reshuffled Cabinet.”
Recognizing the significance of his dual role, Mudavadi embraced the opportunity with a profound sense of duty and dedication, pledging to continue serving the people of Kenya and their nation with unwavering commitment, integrity, and diligence.
He also committed to championing the interests of Kenyans, both within the country’s borders and on the international stage.
