President William Ruto expressed strong disapproval towards disruptive behavior exhibited by a group of unruly youth during a public event in Kiutine, Meru County, on Friday.
The youth were heckling Governor Kawira Mwangaza as she addressed the gathering, prompting Ruto to intervene.
(“Siasa hii ya makelele mimi sitaki. Hii ni siasa mbaya. Nataka niwapangie kazi ya ajira. Mambo ya kukuja kupiga kelele kwa mkutano mimi sitaki,”)
“I will not tolerate this noisy politics. This is uncivilized politics. I want to provide job opportunities. I don’t want people coming here to disrupt meetings,” Ruto stated, visibly annoyed.
(“Tabia kama hii sitaki tena; kwa mkutano ya rais sitaki watu wa kupiga makelele. Hii ni kukosa heshima na nataka kila kiongozi apatiwe heshima.”)
“I don’t want this kind of behavior anymore; I won’t tolerate disruptive behavior at presidential meetings. This is disrespectful, and I expect every leader to be accorded respect.”
The president also urged the youth to exercise patience until the next general elections if they wish to replace any elected leaders they believe are underperforming, rather than resorting to heckling. He emphasized that current leaders need sufficient time to fulfill their responsibilities.
(“Mtu akifanya kazi si utawacha aendelee na kazi. Mtu akikosa kufanya kazi si mtamfukuza aende nyumbani. Iko nafasi ya uchaguzi saa hii?”)
“If someone is working, you won’t let them continue working. If someone fails to work, will you dismiss them and send them home? Is it election time now?” Ruto questioned.
(“Hatutaki makelele katika mikutano ya UDA na Kenya Kwanza. We do not want this kind of nonsense, we want a united country.”)
“We do not want disruptions at UDA and Kenya Kwanza meetings. We do not want this kind of disorder; we want a unified country.”
