President William Ruto on Wednesday cautioned the Kenyan youths or Gen-Zs against misusing the ‘leaderless’ and ‘fearless’ stance to propagate violence and anarchy in the country.

Ruto while addressing delegates during the launch of the Linzi Sukuk bond at the Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE), clarified that it was good to be leaderless and fearless but not reckless.

According to the Head of State, Kenya was a proud democratic country governed by the rule of law and that there was no constitutional provision for violence.

“We are a country that believes in freedom, and democracy but we are also a government by the rule of law, it is good to be fearless, it is good to be leaderless but it is not good to be reckless,” Ruto clarified.

“ We must know the country is governed by the rule of law. I am very proud that our country is soaring high globally because of what we have done as the people of Kenya and we must safeguard,” he added.

He also assured both local and foreign investors of the country’s stability, vowing to deal with those instigating anarchy in the country.

President Ruto went ahead to warn the youth (Gen-Zs) against misusing cyberspace by insulting their leaders through what they termed as ‘ sending greetings’ to the said politicians. According to the Head of State, cyberbullying was against the law.

The president instead, called on the youths to utilise their access to the internet by making a living out of it.

The sentiments by President Ruto come weeks after he made several changes within his administration in the wake of the anti-government protests which were led by the Kenyan youth. 

Among the changes included dissolving his cabinet, and vowing to come up with an inclusive government which he termed as broad-based.

During the same period, Ruto also announced the resignation of Japhet Koome, the now former Inspector General of Police. Koome has since been replaced by Douglas Kanja who has been nominated to hold the position in substantive capacity.

President Ruto has also appointed two Deputy Inspector Generals.

Ruto would later nominate new cabinet secretaries who are set to undergo vetting starting this week. Among those nominated included 4 senior Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) officials.
