Resignations are looming at the Deputy President Kithure Kindiki ahead of the 2027 elections with the office now forced to set aside Sh95.4 million for gratuity payments.

The revelation was made yesterday by Principal Administrative Secretary Moses Mbaruku when he appeared before the National Assembly Committee on Administration and Internal Security for the consideration of the estimates for the financial year 2026/2027.

Mbaruku told the House team chaired by Narok West MP Gabriel Tongoyo that a significant number of staff had expressed political ambitions and were set to resign within the constitutionally allowed timeline.
