The meeting comes as CSs are expected to sign a performance contract on Tuesday, November 19.

Among the anticipated issues to be addressed include the Social Health Authority (SHA) which Kenyans continue to raise an issue with despite its roll-out, about a month ago.

Other issues include femicide cases which are on the rise, and the broad-based governance which Ruto said had faced some hiccups when his former DP, Rigathi Gachagua was still in power.
