William Ruto’s eldest son Nick Ruto was forced to deactivate his Facebook page weeks ago after attacks from angry Kenyans, he is back on Facebook and once again he is sticking his head in a beehive.
Ruto’s children love to freely express their opinions on social media unlike other children of politicians who prefer to keep a very low profile online.
Nick Ruto likes showing a confident and forceful personality on his Facebook posts, a thing that has put him on a collision course with section of Kenyans.
Ruto’s eldest son recently took shots at some Kenyans whom he termed as hypocrites through his Facebook post.
“I love Kenyans so much. One thing they does exemplarily is giving adise/opinions. On this, they’re genius. Applying the same advise/opinion on their own life/endeavor is where they draw the line,” wrote Nick Ruto.
Nick’s post comes just weeks after he was forced to to deactivate his Facebook page following a confrontation with trolls.
He deactivated his Facebook page after making scathing attack on President Uhuru Kenyatta’s Jamhuri Day speech.
Nick criticized president Kenyatta’s remarks for saying that the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) was a dream that had been deferred.
The advocate of the high court called out the president for using the lines ‘Dream Deferred’ from Harlem, a poem by Langston Hughes that talks about the injustices black people faced in America.
Nick termed president Kenyatta’s remarks as a distortion of history.
“It’s a distortion of history for President Muigai to call BBI ‘a dream deferred’. The poem is set in the early 20th century in the US, where the promise of the American Dream was clearly not accessible to blacks who had been enslaved less than 50 years earlier. It was not about the dreams of autocrats which are not accomplished due to the resistance of the people, which is the case of BBI,” he explained.
He blamed the media for President Kenyatta for letting the president get away with the distortion of history by failing to read and take care of history.
“But this is the trick that Anglo-American imperialism plays on our minds. It parasites the words of the oppressed and calls on us to take their words literally and ignore the power difference and the context. And our elite get away with it because the media do not read or care for history, and because GoK bureaucrats and the pirate sector demonize the study of the arts,” Nick stated.
He concluded his statement by using the popular ‘Sipangwingwi’ phrase which DP Ruto has recently been using in his campaigns.
The sentiments made Nick a subject of discussion with Kenyans demanding that he must respect the president thus making him to deactivate the account.
