Ruto said the people behind violent attacks during the recent protests will be jailed, adding that the leaders who allegedly sponsored them will face consequences.

“All those found to be involved in schemes to steal and loot public property will face legal action and will be jailed. The leaders behind the chaos, we are coming after you. You cannot sponsor violence in Kenya and expect to go scot-free,” the President remarked.

At the same time, Ruto said the problem of unemployment in the country did not start during his tenure.

President Ruto argued that the unemployment crisis had been there long before he assumed office, and the previous regimes had no proper plan to manage it.

The issue of unemployment did not start with this government. The unemployment crisis exists because we never had a proper system or plan in place before, unlike what we have today,” Ruto stated.
