Kapseret MP Oscar Sudi has doubled down on his fierce support for President William Ruto, warning that supporters must do “everything possible” to ensure Ruto wins the next election.
“We must ensure Ruto wins the elections by all means, hatuwezi shindwa. Wale jamaa wakichukua serikali kama mimi wataniweka jela niozee huko,” he said in a clip that has been widely shared on social media.
The remarks have drawn attention amid rising political tensions as parties and personalities position themselves ahead of 2027. Sudi, a prominent and vocal Kenya Kwanza ally, is known for his fiery speeches that often trend online.
Reactions on social media were immediate and mixed: supporters praised his passion and resolve, while critics condemned the tone of the comments and warned that rhetoric suggesting punitive action against political opponents risks inflaming divisions.
As the political debate intensifies, watchdogs and civil-society actors are likely to monitor such statements closely. For now, Sudi’s comments add to an increasingly heated public conversation about how politicians must balance robust campaigning with responsibility and respect for democratic norms.
