Ruto tells Uhuru to seek advice from ‘sober Kenyans’ in fresh political attack
Ruto has dismissed Uhuru Kenyatta's assessment of public opinion ahead of the 2027 elections, telling the former President to seek advice from sober Kenyans as he also mocked the opposition over its by-election victories.
Kisii, Kenya – President William Ruto has criticized retired President Uhuru Kenyatta, urging him to seek advice from sober Kenyans instead of "drunkards" ahead of the 2027 General Election. Delivering a speech at a political rally in Kisii, Ruto challenged Uhuru's claim that Kenyans have already decided on the next election, stressing that the opposition's main issue is unity rather than public support.
Ruto suggested that Uhuru should consult professionals such as farmers, teachers, doctors and workers involved in the Affordable Housing Programme for a more accurate understanding of public sentiment. Uhuru had previously stated that his interactions with ordinary citizens indicated widespread dissatisfaction with the current political direction and a desire for opposition leaders to present a united front in the upcoming polls.
