Tuesday, March 17, 2026 - President William Ruto’s youngest son, George Ruto, is trending after making a grand entrance in Naivasha over the weekend behind the wheel of a brand-new Mercedes G-Wagon valued at over Ksh 40 million.
Adding to the spectacle, his convoy included security escorts driving a 2026 Lexus model worth more than Ksh 35 million, turning heads and igniting conversations online.
The display of opulence has divided Kenyans.
A section of netizens castigated George, accusing him of
flaunting wealth at a time when many citizens are struggling to make ends meet
under the harsh economic climate.
Critics argued that such extravagance felt like “spitting on
Kenyans” grappling with high living costs.
On the flip side, others rallied behind the young Ruto,
insisting that he has every right to enjoy his privileges as the President’s
son.
“If my father was the president, I would be changing cars
like clothes. I’d also be importing beautiful damsels from Malaysia,” one user
quipped, highlighting the hypocrisy of expecting modesty from someone born into
power.
Others pointed out that George’s ventures in the matatu industry are well known, suggesting that he could afford luxury cars without necessarily dipping into taxpayers’ money.
