Roads PS Joseph Mbugua (73.4%) and Parliamentary Affairs PS Aurelia Rono (72.2%) were also among the top-rated officials.

Politrack Africa stated that the findings provide crucial insights into public confidence in government service delivery.

The survey results come at a time when President William Ruto is reviewing a shortlist of 109 candidates for PS positions.
With 51 current PSs facing uncertainty, speculation is growing about potential changes in government appointments.
The Public Service Commission (PSC) completed interviews for the positions on January 31, after receiving over 2,500 applications.
The final list of 109 candidates suggests a competitive selection process compared to the 9,000 applications received in 2022.
Politrack Africa has advised the government to retain high-performing PSs while adopting their successful strategies in other departments. Their recommendations include:
Maintaining leadership in well-performing sectors.
Documenting successful management tactics.
Enhancing collaboration between government departments.
