New Survey Highlights Standout Performers in the Cabinet

A new performance assessment released by the Centre for African Progress, under the leadership of CEO Onchari Oyeiyo, has revealed the top-performing Cabinet Secretaries, alongside public sentiment about the overall state of the Cabinet. The findings come at a time when public scrutiny of government efficiency remains high.

According to the report, majority of Kenyans at 60% consider the Cabinet incompetent, while only 24% believe it is performing well. Another 16% had no opinion, signaling a widening confidence gap between citizens and their executive leadership.

 Energy CS Opiyo Wandayi emerged as the best-performing cabinet secretary with a commanding 9% rating, placing him at the top of the national rankings. His ministry was credited for ongoing reforms and visible improvements in the country’s energy sector.

The Education Ministry, led by Migosi Ogamba, followed closely with 8.5%, earning the second position. Health CS Aden Duale secured third place with 8.2%, reflecting public acknowledgment of progress in health service delivery.

Foreign Affairs CS Musalia Mudavadi got 7.5% in 4th position 

ICT CS William Kabogo – 7.3% 5th position 

Roads CS Davis Chirchir – 7.2% on 6th position 

Tourism CS Rebecca Miano – 7% on 7th position 

Defense CS Soipan Tuya – 5.4% on 8th 

Mining CS Ali Hassan Joho – 5.2% on 9th position 

Agriculture CS Mutahi Kagwe – 5.1% on 10th position 

The lower half of the rankings features ministries with less than 5%, including Trade (4.2%), Interior (3.8%), Gender (3.6%), Water (3.4%), Environment (3.2%), Lands (2.6%), Finance (2.3%), Public Service (2.2%), and Cooperatives (2%).

CEO Onchari Oyeiyo said the report is intended to help highlight areas of progress while pushing for greater accountability in ministries lagging behind. He emphasized that the findings should inform strategic improvements and guide public expectations going forward.

The Centre for African Progress called on Cabinet Secretaries to take the results seriously and address gaps in service delivery, especially amid growing public dissatisfaction.
