A government performance review has named the top five and bottom five ministries for the 2024/2025 financial year. The Office of the Prime Cabinet Secretary & Ministry of Foreign Affairs, State House, and the National Treasury topped the list, followed by the Ministry of Environment. One top-five ministry was omitted for "confidential reasons."

The worst-performing ministries were Education, Tourism and Wildlife, Health, East African Community (EAC), ASALs and Regional Development, and Youth Affairs, Creative Economy and Sports.

Of the 22 ministries evaluated, none achieved an "Excellent" grade; only four attained "Very Good." The most improved ministry was Co-operatives and MSMEs Development, rising from "Poor" to "Good," while the Ministry of Interior recorded the sharpest decline.

Among 486 state agencies evaluated, the overall average score was "Good." Of 269 state corporations, 56% met their targets. Top performers included Kenya Industrial Estates, University of Nairobi, Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital, and Chuka University. The worst performers included Kenya Meat Commission, Kenya National Trading Corporation, and Kenya National Entrepreneurs Savings Trust—all repeat bottom performers from the previous year.

Among tertiary institutions, Rift Valley National Polytechnic and Kabete National Polytechnic ranked highest, while Omuga Technical and Vocational College and several teachers' training colleges ranked lowest.

Financially, 30 state corporations posted a combined pre-tax profit of Sh44.3 billion, missing the target by 15.8% but growing 67% from the previous year.

Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi said the evaluations aim to strengthen accountability and efficiency, while PS Ahmed Ibrahim noted the report will inform policy and improve public service delivery.
