Kitchen cabinet may mean the leaders of Kafira who advice the president of that state.They include Mulili,Tumbo,Nicodemo and the Askari.

Mulili's corrupt trait makes him have the milk tender which was initially Kabito's. He manipulates Boss into giving him the tender by lying to Boss about Kabito and later,he has him killed.He is also greedy for wealth that he is ready to do anything to get the vast land promised to him by Boss.This indeed has brought the situation of Kafira to be in a state whereby the leaders no longer care for the citizens but for their own good.

Tumbo, a topmost government official is corrupt,which leads him to let Jusper write the play without having a competition to get a winner as was required to.He later says that the rest of the money be used to set the records straight.This is greed at its best beside corruption,and so being responsible for the government being corrupt and selfish.

Nicodemus' act of planting drugs in Mosese's car is corrupt indeed,especially when it is meant to implicate an innocent person leading into being jailed just to silence and punish him for no good reason.After the announcement of Kabito's death,he asks if that day would be counted since the meeting was being called off.

Askari is not a nice person,when he says that he gave tea to the prisoner Jere who does not belong to his tribe.He goes further to say that one needs a tall relative to get anything these days,an indication of poor governance in Kafira.

In a nutshell the people who work with and around Boss are the ones who are responsible for the issues in the government of Kafira.
