Deputy president William Samoei Ruto seems to be on a mission to completely outsmart Wiper Democratic Movement party leader Kalonzo Musyoka sleepless nights.
On Thursday, William Ruto met a section of Ukambani leaders accompanied by grassroots and religious leaders from the larger Machakos county.
“The Hustler Nation’s Bottom-Up Economic Plan is dedicated to establishing a conducive investment environment for small and medium-sized businesses to flourish, creating jobs for millions of ordinary Kenyans.” Said Ruto
“Met grassroots and religious leaders from Machakos led by MPs Victor Munyaka, Vincent Kawaya, Nimrod Mbai and UDA Chairman Johnson Muthama, among others at the Karen Residence, Nairobi County.” Added the deputy president.
The meeting by the second in command comes in the wake of a similar event in Karen which saw hungry youths castigate Mr. Ruto for not giving them food and money for transport.
These youths on Tuesday lamented that they were kept at Ruto’s Karen home from morning but until 4 pm, they had not been given food, not even water to drink.
From the video clip seen by Sonko News, the visibly angry youths revealed that it was already evening but there were no signs of food or transport to take them back home as those in charge of money and kitchen gave them a wide berth.
Tulikuja hapa mapema na tukasema tunataka tuone mweshimiwa DP. Lakini kwa sababu ya watu ambao ni ma cartels, watu wamepewa watupee pesa na hawajatupea sisi pesa mpaka saizi kwanzia asubui bado tuko hapa hivi. Na hatujakula na hatuna fare. Tunataka ivi, tunataka mweshimiwa Ruto ajue ya kwamba sisi hatujakula kwanzia asubui, nataka mweshimiwa DP ajue ya kwamba hatuna fare, nataka mweshimiwa DP iyo haki aalisema kila mtu apate sisi watu wa starehe hajujapata.”
Loosely translated: ” We came here very early to see deputy president William Ruto but some cartels who were given money are yet to give us any coin since we started waiting here. To make it worse, we have not even eaten. We want the deputy president to know that we have not eaten since morning and we have no transport to take us back home. Further, let him know that whatever he provided to be given to us has not been delivered.
