  "account": "Nairobi, Kenya – President William Ruto has asserted that God has empowered him and Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka to drive Kenya’s progress, as he toured the Ukambani region. In a Kiswahili address, Ruto stated, \"If there are people whom God is using in Kenya, it is me and Kalonzo. I am delivering development, while Kalonzo helps me publicise it.\" The President's comments emphasized the collaborative nature of Kenya Kwanza's development agenda, with Kalonzo playing a crucial role in promoting the projects. Ruto's visit to Ukambani, Kalonzo's political stronghold, underscored the President's commitment to advancing his administration's development initiatives. Kalonzo, a former Vice President and prominent opposition figure, has been engaged in debates regarding the opposition's strategy to challenge Ruto in the 2027 General Election. The President's remarks about Kalonzo occurred amid the intense political rivalry between the Kenya Kwanza administration and opposition leaders, as they prepare for the upcoming polls.",
