Now that the cabinet secretaries will be technocrats (at least most of them).......do we really need these principal secretaries especially in Ministries that do not have multipe departments!!!

Everyone is a politician, do not believe Dep.President when he lies "there will be only two politicians in cabinet", why did they appoint their tribes people aka stronholds and allies only? don't forget the politics between CJ and Kimem's,nis,army and uhuruto, iebc vs cord all politics from non-politicians! It reigns supreme above the judiciary, the legislature and the executive, cabinet is their own "new" political bigwigs, ps's will run errands, nothing new, just new faces.

Using wikipedia's definition of a politician, it seems they are

A politician, political leader, or political figure (from Classical Greek πόλις, "polis") is a person who is involved in influencing public policy and decision making.

given that this principal secretaries will also go to technocrats whats the fate of ongeri , mungatana and the rest of jubilee big wigs who were floored and how exactly will uhuru and ruto campaign in future elections i doubt any politician will want to endure a gruelling campaign period just to be rewarded with a parastatal board position.

Strictly speaking I don't see their role in Ministries with single departments...it's like a duplication of duties!!!!

My understanding:
Cabinet Secretary role is more about Policy and strategy. They will be in cabinet to discuss and make decisions as government....collective government decision making. Also CS will be the interface between Executive and Legislation (accountable to parliamentary committees)

Principle secretary will have operational and accounting role in his or her department. e.g. Administration, Planning, implementing government policy and decisions, people management in the department, etc

I see the relationship between them... CS AS EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN/ MD and PS as the GENERAL MANAGER of an organization.

my 2 cents
