Friday, July 21, 2023 –Local Experts have weighed in on the cause of the ongoing countrywide protests in the country.

In their separate account of what is happening in the country, the experts, speaking on different media platforms in the country, have noted that the main cause of this unrest in the country was not the opposition but the high-cost of living which every citizen was suffering from.

That unless this is addressed cumulatively, the current administration will still have to face leadership challenges time and again.

Speaking on Tv today Friday July 21, political analyst Mark Bichachi, explained that it was very wrong for the William Ruto-led administration to keep accusing the past governments of having presided over the same high cost of living. He instead said, the current head of State should be ready to solve this matter now that he is in leadership and stop unhealthy blame game.

“People are protesting the high cost of living. Even if that high cost of living started in 1964, they are in pain today. This government is the one to solve it. In the bill, they haven’t reduced the cost of living by an inch and so, the protests are justified,” noted Mark Bichachi.

Speaking on the same matter, analyst and universoty lecturer Herman Manyora took issue with the William Ruto-led government for attempting to muzzle dissenting voices.

“The people trying to manage the demonstrations need look at our history; Article 37 is not in the Constitution by accident. Nobody has the power to allow or cancel a demonstration, not even the president,” he stated.

They were making these remarks even as the head of State was busy traversing the country to maintain his popularity.

Ruto has since toured Kericho, Kisii, Narok and Nyeri counties this week alone where he reminded his supporters of his diligent commitment to improve living standards in the country.
