President William Ruto has finally hit back politically against the Gen Z protesters that have vowed to oppose his government over incompetence and corruption that is deep rooted.
Speaking when he commissioned the Kibuka Power sub station in Kajiado County on Wednesday, the Head of State urged kenyans especially Gen Z Protesters to remain calm and wait for the 2027 General Election to vote out incompetent leaders including him.

“Nataka tuelewe ya kwamba vile tunasonga mbele ni kuhakikisha ya kwamba kila kiongozi; kila mmoja wetu, tujue ya kwamba pale 2027 tutafanya mtihani na hawa wananchi na kila mtu atakuja na kazi yake amefanya.”
According to President Ruto, Gen Z and kenyans at large should note any leader who did not perform by 2027 to be shown the door while those that kenyans feel have performed will be re-elected.
“So hakuna haja ya kusumbuana hapa katikati; wacha tungoje hii mtihani, kila mtu afanye mtihani tuone nani ni wa kupita na nani ni wa kuanguka.”
President Ruto further advised Kenyan youth (Gen Z protesters) against engaging in the protests, citing incidents of disorder caused by protests have led to loss of lives and property destruction as a result.
“Tusikubali nchi yetu iharibike ama tulete fujo, vita ama mambo itaharibu amani ya taifa yetu ya Kenya. Sisi ni nchi ya demokrasia na katika demokrasia ni wananchi wanaamua na wanaamua katika uchaguzi.”
