TIFA survey shows that the majority of Kenyans (56%) believe that the country is heading in the wrong direction.
TIFA on Wednesday, July 12, 2023, released the report of the survey that was conducted between June 24, 2023, and June 30, 2023, by means of Computer-Assisted-Telephonic-Interviews (CATI) with some 1,530 respondents.
The study report revealed that most Kenyans (56%) believe the Kenya Kwanza government is taking the country in the wrong direction.
However, 25 percent of Kenyans believed that the Ruto government is taking the country in the right direction.
The proportions of those perceiving the country’s direction as ‘right’ vs. ‘wrong’ have been reversed since March, when a plurality held to the former view (37% vs. 25%), whereas as of June the latter view was most prominent (56% vs. 48%).
Among the minority who consider the country’s current direction as positive (25%), there is little agreement on their reasons, with a small plurality (24%) citing the leadership of the Ruto government as the main reason for their positivity.

Irrespective of their political affiliations, the vast majority of Kenyans who perceive the country’s current direction as incorrect are in unanimous agreement that the ever-increasing cost of living is where Ruto has completely gotten it wrong.
Overall, Kenyans who participated in TIFA’s research gave Ruto a C+ score based on their feelings about the president fulfilling his campaign promises.
The sample was spread across nine regions which include Central Rift, Coast, Lower Eastern, Mt Kenya, Nairobi, Northern, Nyanza, South Rift, and Western.
The interviews were conducted through telephone interviews and face-to-face.
There was a positive and negative 2.5 percent margin of error.
