Former Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria revealed he voluntarily resigned as Senior Economic Advisor to President William Ruto, dispelling claims of being fired. His decision stemmed from dissatisfaction with the government's handling of the Saba Saba protests, which he said "shattered" him.

Moses Kuria resigned on July 8, the day after the Saba Saba protests in 2025.
He previously served as Cabinet Secretary for Investments, Trade and Industry, and later for Public Service, Delivery and Performance Management, before his Cabinet removal in 2024.
President Ruto reportedly "regretted" Kuria's decision to resign, despite not asking him to do so.
