What you need to know:

  • President Ruto accused some agencies of using alternative payment methods, which he said undermined accountability and facilitated corruption.
  • Dr Ruto then gave the agencies a week to ensure that all services and revenue payments are processed through the eCitizen platform.

The High Court has temporarily suspended President William Ruto's directive to 34 state agencies to migrate their services to the eCitizen digital platform.

High Court judge Bahati Mwamuye on Wednesday also issued orders blocking the removal of the CEOs of the State agencies for failing to migrate their services to eCitizen as directed by President Ruto.
