Ruto stranded as power two blackouts disrupt his speech at Naivasha meeting

President William Ruto forced to deliver his speech in darkness after two power blackouts during the executive retreat in Naivasha.

President William Ruto on Wedneday had a taste of what has slowly been becoming a norm in the country after a power blackout during the National Executive Retreat in Naivasha. 

Ruto was addressing Cabinet Secretaries, and was explaining his government’s agenda and why he chose them to help him deliver his mandate when lights went off.

The Head of State could be heard struggling to deliver his speech momentarily before the lights were restored.

 “Are we there…Oh, okay,” Ruto said while testing out the microphone.

“The reason why I appointed you is that I knew you have the capacity to do the job you are doing,” Ruto stated before a power outage was experienced.

The incident occurred twice within five minutes, the second one occurring just when he was about to end his speech.

However, despite being interrupted twice, Ruto did not comment on the matter, but instead proceeded to complete his speech.

This comes amid complaints over frequent power outages in various parts of the country, forcing Kenyans to resort to alternative means of power supply.
