Thursday, June 8, 2023 –Kiharu Member of Parliament MP Ndindi Nyoro was cornered on live Tv to explain how Russia-Ukrane war affected local economic status.
Before elections, Ruto and his team attacked President Uhuru Kenyatta after he(Uhuru) linked food and fuel price hike to the ongoing invasion in Ukraine by Russia.
Ruto, then deputy president, maintained that Uhuru and his Handshake partner Raila Odinga were incompetent of taking charge of the country and that they had run out of options after pushing him out of powerful government circle.
Leading to the August 9 General Election, Ruto dismissed his boss-turned-predecessor, Uhuru, who had claimed that the high cost of living was largely attributed to the Russia-Ukraine war.
And as a solution, Ruto questioned the subsidies which Uhuru had activated on foodstuffs in the country.
Dr. Ruto offered his two cents saying the only way the country could stable and sustainable realise food security and low cost of living would be through susbsidised production.
“This story about Ukraine is a lost cause,” Dr. Ruto stated on June 30, 2022.
After his election into office, Ruto quickly changed goalposts and linked the difficult economic period to Russia-Ukraine war.
His friend MP Ndindi Nyoro has also joined him in changing this narrative. Asked by Citizen Tv news anchor Ayub Abdikadir about it on Wednesday June 7, MP Nyoro said they(Kenya Kwanza) was dealing with the situation differently and in a better way than the last regime.
