RUTO MUST GO .
He thought it was a joke, none is laughing , you MUST GO.
Whether you concede or not, 2027 you are going home together with all the mps who voted yes
@@veronkelly6337 if they last that long
Ruto must go
Mr. "President". What about Haiti? Here too, how many African/Black lives to be lost before you come to terms with your madness?
Coincides with our Independence Day, a result of a taxation protest.
Mr. "President". What of the dead? Dead because of you.
The tax idea came from Washington. Why do you think he went to America in a private jet? A lot of hand baggage to bring back😡
you go home go go go
It's very unfortunate, that people have died, and all bad presidential advisers must also be dismissed.
Kindly go and read Portugal case study of how they managed to escape debt trap
As per our constitution, he cannot rejectthe bill just by saying so. He islying again. In 14 days, it becomes law
Remove the government and make new laws
But you know it can't become a law whichever way. The riots would be impossible to handle. You think this is a joke!
DO NOT TAX THE PEOPLE. TAX THE RICH AND THE FOEIGHNER BUSINESSES. WAKE UP
Do not overtax foreign companies either . They help in creating jobs for the local people.
Now most of them in the west ❓ can return home and get ready for the real battle, against a sponsor who won't take no for a answer, ❓ prophecy now the real battle has just begun,✌️💪🔥🙏
this poor guy is lucky this is 2024 otherwise the the people would've OVERWHELMINGLY chased him out of office. But is he going 2 replace the lost lives????
Resign Go we don't need you we don't recognize you as our president
Sema wewe alone ndio haumrecognise,, most Kenyans recognize him , toka hapa na ujinga wako
Why don't the citizens see that their affairs cannot improve regardless of the particular leader without a new mind that has no tribal loyalty.
He is outta there
Your tone
Ruto must go!
Brutal murderer.
I love democracy. stop the coup in Bolivia.
HE'S LYING ITS ALL PR RUTO MUST GO!!
Talk of 2032 bro uyu tunampigua kura 2027 kwa mpigo
Hypocrisy 😁🤣 you've no power.
Is this Obama’s dad 😂
Hehe, nah. If this was Obama's dad, Obama would be richer than Elon Musk.
This is a reincarnation of Mobutu Sseseko
Corruption and little education simlar story all over africa
Corruption yes. Little education, not in Kenya. The average unemployed person in Kenya has a university degree. It's that makes this protest very threatening to those in power
It's not your common Trump hooligan. It's like the middle class in the USA wake up and go. Enough with this bullshit. These
Kenyan youth are highly educated, unemployed and hopeless. That's why things are developing rapidly
