"I am a man on a mission because we have to change this country" President Ruto says

President William Ruto has reiterated his commitment to transform the nation before his tenure lapses in 2027.

Speaking in Taita Taveta on Sunday, President Ruto maintained that he will not be swayed from actualizing his ambitious promises to Kenyans despite heaping ridicule from his critics.

“I am a man on a mission I don’t have the luxury to retreat or surrender because we have to change this country,” he said.

 

“I sympathize with the naysayers and negative people who want Kenya to fail. Kenya will proceed forward.”

President Ruto further said that his resilience has borne fruit, noting that his government has achieved significant reform under the two years he has been in office.

He said that prices of commodities have been cut down and he has managed to cure the ailing economy.

“I have a great dream for Kenya and by God’s grace we will transform this nation. Already there are signs of transformation,” noted Ruto.

”We are seeing the prices of basic commodities come down. Prices of fuel have progressively come down in the past five months.”

He added that part of his transformation agenda includes wiring electricity to 7,000 homes by 2027, providing decent living to Kenyans under the Housing Scheme and well as provide healthcare through the controversial Social Health Insurance Fund (SHIF).

The Head of State therefore urged Kenyans to desist from embracing sentiments from his critics whom he says they “do not want Kenya to move forward”.

President Ruto’s leadership has been recently put to question over the anomalies in his government including unchecked graft allegations and unsavory laws that seek to puncture Kenyans’ pocket through taxation.

He has however remained adamant that he will turn the tables, owing to changes he made in his government including the forming of the broad-based government after dissolving his first Cabinet team.
