A video surfaced online yesterday of Uhuru Kenyatta seemingly asking deputy president Ruto to help him reach out to kenyans.
Here is what the president Saud in the speech circulated by kenyans.
President Kenyatta said:
“Hii kijana anaitwa Ruto unajua kila weekend anatangatanga kila mahali… atakua anapitia hizi machorochoro mkiona kuna kitu inaenda konakona mumuambie. Tuhakikishe kazi ya wananchi imefanyika… Tumekubaliana? Wangapi wanasema tuache siasa tuende kazi?” Uhuru Kenyatta sai
Loosely translated: “The Deputy President comes around these areas a lot and if you see anything wrong with the progress of the project you can inform him. Let us ensure services are delivered to Kenyans.”
What actually the president meant was that the projects which have been launched will be supervised.
Ruto has been assigned role to be supervising most of jubilee projects on behalf of the president, so the president meant that you will be seeing the deputy president more on the ground as jubilee work hard to deliver their big four agenda.
Kiswahili is not a straightforward language compared to English so Uhuru Kenyatta message was distorted by many to mean that Uhuru Kenyatta urged Ruto to stop politics.
Uhuru Kenyatta was only saying William Ruto will be more in the ground launching and supervising jubilee projects.
