President William Ruto will lead a two-day National Executive Retreat starting on June 19 to address Kenya's economic issues and employment rates amidst recent protests.

• The retreat includes key government officials, focusing on the country's slowing economy, which is under fiscal pressure.
• The protests, particularly in the Nairobi Central Business District, were sparked by the death of influencer Albert Ojwang, resulting in violence and police action.
• The retreat will also explore the 2025 Economic Survey report, noting the labor market's slower-than-expected recovery, particularly affecting youth and vulnerable groups.
