Digital Strategist Pauline Njoroge now says it will be hard for anti-government protestors to force President William Ruto out of office

Digital Strategist Pauline Njoroge now says it will be hard for anti-government protestors to force President William Ruto out of office.

In a statement on Thursday, August 8, Njoroge said the right time for Kenyans to remove the Head of State was on June 25 when the protests hit the climax.

“If Kenyans wanted Ruto to go wherever, 25th June 2024 was the day. That was the climax! The minute protestors went back home that evening, it was the end of that story, and imagining that that defining moment can be recreated in the next couple of weeks is wishful thinking,” said Njoroge.

The digital strategist noted that the hype around nane nane protests is futile and it is disadvantaging Kenyans doing businesspeople who have been forced to close their businesses out of fear.

She noted that it was unfair for traders to close their outlets due to violent protests adding that they are innocent Kenyans who are also facing the same challenges as everyone else.

“The hype around nane nane, tisa tisa, kumi kumi etc is just hot air! The only people it’s disadvantaging are those who do business in town and can’t stay open on such a day out of fear.

“It is unfair that we continue subjecting traders to a volatile situation which will only make their financial situation worse, yet they are innocent Kenyans who are going through what everyone else is facing,” she remarked.

Pauline Njoroge pointed out that everyone was very supportive of the protests at the beginning but it was time for the protests to stop.

She mentioned that the swearing-in of Cabinet Secretaries marked the end of the protests and Kenyans should now wait and see if they will deliver their promises.

Further Njoroge urged Kenyans to register as voters ahead of the 2027 general elections so that they will vote for leaders who are suitable to lead the nation.

“It is important that we register to vote so that in 2027 we cast our vote for that person we will each find suitable to lead the country. And if it’s about sustaining pressure and keeping the government on its toes till 2027, there is got to be another way,” Njoroge added.

This comes as Kenyans returned to the streets of Nairobi CBD for another round of anti-government protests dubbed nane nane.
