Cabinet Secretary for Health, Hon. Aden Duale, today oversaw the signing of the Ministry’s Performance Contracts for the Financial Year 2025/2026 (1 July 2025 – 30 June 2026), reaffirming the Ministry’s commitment to accountability, efficient service delivery, and measurable impact for Kenyans.
The ceremony followed the vetting of Ministerial Performance Contracts in July 2025 and, in line with national Performance Contracting Guidelines, formally aligned the Ministry’s targets with national development priorities. It also triggered the cascading of obligations across Directorates, Departments, Divisions, and Units, ensuring clearly defined, performance-driven responsibility at every level.
Addressing Ministry leadership, the CS underscored responsible governance, prudent management of public resources, and results-focused leadership that converts policy commitments into concrete actions and verifiable outcomes. He reaffirmed the Ministry’s constitutional obligation to uphold transparency, accountability, and integrity in executing its mandate.
Noting that health is a central pillar of the 5th Administration’s Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA), Hon. Duale stated that a resilient health system is fundamental to economic growth, social stability, and human dignity. He highlighted key gains, including advances in health financing reforms, digital health integration, expanded benefits coverage, strengthened community health systems, and improved access to specialised services—reflecting coordinated leadership and institutional discipline.
The CS commended the Principal Secretaries and senior management for driving reforms with focus and integrity, emphasising that every public resource allocated to health must deliver tangible value to citizens. He called for heightened fiscal discipline, accelerated reform implementation, enhanced transparency, improved service standards, and stronger collaboration between the National and County Governments in the new performance cycle.
Hon. Duale expressed confidence that the year ahead will be defined by disciplined execution, ethical stewardship, innovation, and zero tolerance for complacency as the Ministry advances a more equitable, sustainable, and accountable health system anchored on Universal Health Coverage (UHC).
The signing ceremony was attended by Principal Secretaries Hon. Ahmed Abdisalan Ibrahim (National Government Coordination), Dr Ouma Oluga (Medical Services) and Ms Mary Muthoni (Public Health and Professional Standards), Director-General for Health Dr Patrick Amoth, alongside Ministry Directors and Technical Heads.
