Ruto: Kenya Kwanza-ODM Pact Focused on Unity, Not Rivalry

President William Ruto has assured the people of Nyanza and Kenyans in general that the partnership between Kenya Kwanza and ODM is aimed at fostering unity, not political rivalry.

Ruto explained that his agreement with ODM leader Raila Odinga was motivated by the collective well-being of all Kenyans, rather than individual political interests. “There is more to gain from working together than from competing for personal success,” he remarked.

Speaking during an interdenominational church service in Suna East, Migori County, the President emphasized that national unity is far more valuable than personal political achievements. “ODM members should understand that this government is theirs just as much as it is for UDA members and everyone else,” Ruto stated.
