Kenya’s under-fire President William Ruto has dismissed with "immediate effect" all his ministers and the attorney-general, following the recent deadly protests that led to the withdrawal of an unpopular tax bill.
The president said the move came after "reflection, listening to Kenyans, and after holistic appraisal of my cabinet".
He has said he will now consult widely in order to set up a broad-based government.
The dissolution of his cabinet does not affect the deputy president, who can’t legally be fired, and the prime cabinet secretary who is also the foreign affairs minister.
