Ruto receives heavy criticism on his Mt Kenya tour in which he launched several projects completed under Former President Uhuru Kenyatta.
Ruto kickstarted his five-day working tour of the Mt Kenya region, where he commissioned a host of development projects.
He started in Githurai, Kiambu county, where he presided over the official opening of the modern market built there.
“The building of modern markets in counties, equipped with value addition facilities, will provide conducive environment, cut down losses and expand earnings for traders. That is our priority in the Plan as we transform Kenya. Officially opened the Githurai Market, Kiambu County,” said Ruto.
However, former Mukurweini MP Kabando wa Kabando put President William Ruto on the spot in which he stated that except for the hired bloggers and UDA sycophants, all sane and sensitive residents of Central Kenya will tell Ruto that things are bad
Kabando joined other critics who took to social media to point out that the projects that Ruto was launching during the five-day working tour were implemented by his predecessor, retired President Uhuru Kenyatta at a time when he was the Deputy President and focused on pre-mature campaigns.
He challenged President Ruto to focus on delivering on the promises he made during campaigns instead of adding more promises and stories of Raila and Uhuru as things move from bad to worse.
“Rais Ruto, all those projects you’ve come Mt.Kenya to launch are of Uhuru’s era. Where is the Guaranteed Minimum Returns for our avocados, coffee, milk, coffee, tea, macadamia, rice that you so loudly promised? Sir, your govt needs serious cleansing of deceptions & incompetence!
“Mr. President, what Mt.Kenya region, as indeed all regions of Kenya, need is statesmanship from you and government services. Stories about Uhuru & Raila is not what you were elected to do. We recognise you, even as your presidency is replete with disdain, rantings, lamentations.” Kabando wrote in the hard-hitting statement.
He alleged that the crowds that turned up to cheer the president were bribed, noting that the reality on the ground is that the region is no longer at ease and things are falling apart so quickly that only the brave can say.
“Dear Rais WSR, except for the hired bloggers and UDA sycophants, all sane and sensitive residents of Central Kenya will tell you that ‘NO LONGER AT EASE, THE CENTRE CANNOT HOLD, THINGS FALL APART’. The mountain is angry, volcanic. Find time to supplicate for divine intervention.

“Mr. President: As Mt.Kenya UDA brigade rally hired troops to fake cheers for you, I choose to tell you only the TRUTH. This TRUTH is that cash crop earnings have dropped even as the dollar skyrockets. Students admitted universities this week aren’t sure of admission. It is BAD.
“Rais, as you enter Nyeri County to “launch” gone era projects, to HOST “cleansing” prayers Sagana State Lodge, reserve a moment of supplication for the sacred mountain. KIBAKI never ever bribed pastors or crowds to ‘thanksgiving’ rallies. We just loved him free for who he was.” He added.
In addition, digital strategist Pauline Njoroge also hit out at Ruto claiming that the president was launching projects of his predecessor, Uhuru Kenyatta.
Njoroge said some projects were completed long ago in the Mount Kenya region.
“William Ruto will be camping in the Mt. Kenya region to launch Uhuru’s projects, some of which were completed long ago. I thought they said hakuna kitu Uhuru alikuwa anafanya,” Njoroge said.
She highlighted some projects like the KSh 827 million Githurai Market, KSh 229 million Naromoru level four hospital.
She also mentioned the Kirinyaga water supply project and the Githurai water supply project costing KSh 1.3 billion and KSh 1.2 billion, respectively.
