Former President Uhuru Kenyatta has been accused by current President William Ruto of being ungrateful and deceitful. President Ruto urged Mr Kenyatta to retire honorably and stop the continuous betrayal and misuse of political leaders. The President stated that despite supporting Mr Kenyatta's presidential bids in 2002, 2013, and twice in 2017, Mr Kenyatta chose to repay him with betrayal by not supporting his presidential bid in 2022 and actively campaigning against him ahead of the 2027 elections.
Ruto also accused Mr Kenyatta of betraying former Prime Minister Raila Odinga, Kalonzo Musyoka, and Fred Matiang’i. The President warned opposition leaders to be cautious of Mr Kenyatta's deceitfulness and pointed out the progress made under the Kenya Kwanza administration. He emphasized that he has delivered on the country's priority agenda, including improving healthcare, stabilizing the economy, and implementing affordable housing projects.
Ruto urged the opposition to evaluate the government's performance based on the manifesto Kenyans voted for and challenged them to refrain from engaging in empty politics of insults, tribalism, and hatred.
