Coast civil society groups have vowed to block the reappointment of six cabinet secretaries the cabinet by president William Ruto.

Haki Africa and human rights Ageda (Huria)and a host of coast human rights groups say Ruto acted in total disregard of demands by the Gen-Z,demands who wanted a complete overhaul of the cabinet.

Speaking in Mombasa on Sunday, they have declared to explore all opportunities, including going to court to block the reappointment of incompetent cabinet secretaries.

"We want to strongly oppose,the reappointment of any individual who was in the previous cabinet ,if they were declared incompetent, why then did the president change his mind overnight to reappoint them, we automatically reject them. We are considering the other new faces before we make our stand," posed Hussein Khalid,Haki Africa CEO.

President Ruto reappointed to his cabinet, Alice Wahome (Lands), Davis Chirchir(Transport),Kithure Kindiki( Interior) ,Soipan Tuya(Environment)Aden Duale (Defense)and Rabbeca Miano (AG).They served in previous cabinet that was disbanded by the president.

On his part Huria chief executive Yusuf Lule termed the re-appointment of the six Cs as a betrayal to the voice of Kenyans who protested poor leadership and incompetent of the cabinet.

"We are not mad as Kenyans, when Kenyans went to the streets they had a reason to do so, the reappointment of these individuals who previously served in the government is a betrayal to the voice of the Kenyan youth who came out to demonstrate," Said Lule.

Khalid further slammed the government for attacking civil society groups in the pretext of funding anti-government protest. He said non governmental organizations will remain undeterred and will not succumb to any form of state intimidation.

"We want to state that peaceful protests are a constitutional guarantee and people should not be intimidated ,the narrative that CSOs are funding protests is baseless, people come out by themselves,. The Gen Z revolution is organic, they have not been funded by anyone contrary to what politicians want people to believe" said Khaid.

Khalid further asked the opposition to play the role of keeping checks and balances instead of going to bed with the Kenya Kwanza administration. This deals a blow to some of ODM politicians warming up to take up cabinet slots in the Kenya Kwanza administration.

"For democracy to thrive, there must be opposition, so we are asking those in opposition to continue oversight and not in anyway join the government, by joining the government, they will betray the Gen Z revolution," said Khalid
