Saturday, April 5, 2025 - President William Ruto faced a
hostile reception in Embu yesterday during his tour of the Mt. Kenya region.
His address was repeatedly interrupted by chants of “uongo”
(lies) from the crowd, making it difficult for him to communicate.
Reports have since emerged that a section of the crowd had
been mobilized and paid to cheer the President, a tactic reportedly used in
some of his previous stops.
However, Embu residents allegedly accepted the money but
defiantly tore the placards with Ruto’s image.
The County has increasingly become a stronghold of anti-Ruto
sentiment, with many openly calling for his resignation.
The backlash follows recent remarks by former Public Service
Cabinet Secretary Justin Muturi, who was recently dismissed from the Cabinet.
Muturi, a native of Embu, has accused Ruto of corruption and
incompetence, joining forces with former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua in
opposing the President's leadership.
