William Ruto Chides Gachagua for Predicting Bleak Future for Mt Kenya Region: "Hizo Ndimi Zikome"

 

 President William and his deputy, Rigathi Gachagua

Cracks have continued to emerge between President William Ruto and his deputy, Rigathi Gachagua. President William Ruto said the country's future was bright. During an interdenominational church service in Bungoma county on Sunday, June 2, Ruto dismissed Gachagua's recent prophecy about the future of Mt. Kenya. How Ruto differed with Gachagua about the future of Mt Kenya In a direct attack on his deputy, Ruto asked Kenyans not to listen to leaders prophesying darkness and a bleak future for the country. The president urged church leaders to pray so that people with negative prophecies about the country perish. "The future of our nation is great. We are a great nation. We are a blessed country. And you should not accept people who are prophesying darkness and bleak future. And I am asking our bishops to pray so that those tongues stop," Ruto said. The head of state expressed his confidence that the country's future is bright and urged leaders to remain united and focused. "Because this nation, and I am speaking as a leader, in this nation, it is going places. We are respected in Africa and worldwide because our economy is improving. I am confident about the future of Kenya. What we need is to stay united, focused and to plan properly. Ignore the prophets of doom!" he added.  How Rigathi Gachagua predicted a bleak future for Mt Kenya Sentiments by the president come a few days after Gachagua claimed there are individuals plotting against the Mt Kenya region. During a thanksgiving ceremony at Mutonyora Comprehensive School in Njabini on Friday, May 31, the DP warned the Mt. Kenya region about a bleak future. The DP, who spoke in his native Kikuyu language, stated the individuals were sowing seeds of disunity among Mt. Kenya residents.
