Ruto’s debt promise under scrutiny as President defends his record
He says his administration has delivered on the promises to stop runaway borrowing.
EALA Member of Parliament Winnie Odinga has defended President William Ruto in relation to the slow implementation of the 10-point agenda. The president cannot single-handedly deliver the entire framework, she argued during a YouTube podcast interview on August 29, 2026. The 10-point agenda requires a collective effort from various people and institutions, Winnie emphasized.
Placing the entire responsibility on President Ruto would be a disservice, she cautioned, as changing a society is not a solo endeavor. Winnie noted that some individuals entrusted with the responsibility are content with the status quo, leading to delays in implementation. Despite these challenges, she pointed to the recent compensation of victims of protests as a positive milestone achieved under the agreement.
