Kenyan President William Ruto dismissed all of his Cabinet ministers and promised to form a new government on Thursday.
Mr Ruto said that the new government will be lean and efficient following weeks of protests over high taxes and poor governance.
In a televised address, the president also dismissed the attorney general and said ministries would be run by their permanent secretaries.
Mr Ruto said he made the move after listening to the people and that he would form a broad-based government after consultations.

More than 30 people died in the protests, which have morphed into calls for the president to resign.
