Democracy for the Citizens Party (DCP) Senator John Methu and allied Members of Parliaments (MPs) have demanded answers from President William Ruto regarding the state of the economy, security concerns, and unfulfilled promises during his four-year administration. Speaking at the DCP headquarters on Thursday, August 13, 2026, Methu challenged the government's dismissal of criticism from opposition leaders.
He questioned the government's focus on economic performance over the concerns of ordinary Kenyans. Methu urged the government to open up the economy and increase money in the pockets of Kenyans. Defending former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua's criticism of the Ruto administration, Methu emphasized that Gachagua's insights from within the administration warrant answers.
The DCP official also raised questions about unresolved security cases, including the killing of Pakistani journalist Arshad Sharif in October 2022 and the whereabouts of suspects in the Dr Victoria Mutiso case. Methu emphasized that these issues are part of a broader demand for accountability from the Ruto administration.
