Muthoni rallies Mt Kenya behind Ruto, says President remains a friend
The appeal was made during a public engagement in Nyeri under the Jamii Imara Mashinani initiative led by Public Health PS Mary Muthoni.
Nyeri, Kenya, Sep 5 — Officials from Nyeri urged residents to support President William Ruto, citing development projects in the region as proof of the administration's commitment. These efforts were part of the Jamii Imara Mashinani (JIM) initiative under Public Health and Professional Standards Principal Secretary Mary Muthoni, who praised the President's administration for delivering on promises.
Muthoni encouraged residents to give Ruto a chance to complete his second term in 2027 and dismissed political propaganda. The officials also praised the government's infrastructure investments, highlighting a Sh46 billion road project in Nyeri, which they said was greater than in most other parts of the country. They also mentioned that 12 individuals from Nyeri County held senior government positions.
The JIM engagement aimed to present the administration's development message directly to the community while allowing residents to voice their concerns and receive information. President Ruto was expected to visit the region in early 2023 to reinforce the government's development gains and counter political narratives ahead of the 2027 General Election.
