What you need to know:

  • President Ruto praised his partnership with former Prime Minister Raila Odinga in the broad-based government.
  • The Head of State pledged to continue uplifting the lives of Kenyans, especially those in informal settlements.


President William Ruto on Sunday said no amount of criticism from his detractors would derail his plans to deliver key development projects, promising that all Kenya Kwanza manifesto pledges would be fulfilled by the end of his first term.

“For those making noise, continue. But understand that I have an assignment for this nation and I must fulfill it as we have waited for many years. Affordable housing has been discussed for 30 years without implementation, the same with universal health coverage and I am the one to deliver it. I will not wait for anyone,” President Ruto said.
