Friday, January 26, 2024 – In a surprising turn of events, President William Ruto has been ranked as the worst head of state the country has ever had since independence by his own supporters.
According to an online poll conducted by UDA fun page, late
President Mwai Kibaki was ranked the best-performing president in the country’s
history.
By the time we were going to press, 90 percent of UDA
supporters had voted for William Ruto as the worst president.
Ruto’s government has been facing backlash from citizens
over the recent hike in the cost of living, coupled with high taxation as well
as a high rate of unemployment.
For instance, the majority of Kenyans are either in severe
financial distress or struggling to make ends meet pointing to the urgent need
to correct the country’s economic situation before things go further south.
An Infotrak survey conducted in Kenya’s 47 counties and 8
regions of the country revealed that only 5 percent of the sampled population
are comfortably managing economic situations.
Despite criticism from Kenyans and opposition leaders, Ruto
has defended his tax regime, saying it is the only way Kenya can avoid more
debts that are not good for the country.
He said Kenyans must pay their taxes diligently if the
country is to return to a state similar to President Mwai Kibaki’s regime when
he said the economy boomed.
