“These crooks wanted to do some civilian coup, they can and hijacked a genuine course and made it violent,” the MP stated.
Kiborek emphasised that William Ruto was lawfully elected by the people adding that any plan to go against the will done in 2022 of the people shall fail.
On the other hand, William Kamket Tiaty MP accused some politicians of using young Kenyans to oppose Ruto due to some prior disagreement.
Kamket revealed that some leaders from the region allegedly advised President Ruto to support the Finance Bill 2024 a while longer to know who was on his side.
“There are some leaders who oppose the president and are going behind his back through the demonstrations. They are using our children to pretend they support the protests,” he stated.
