President William Ruto has once again stirred nationwide debate after delivering a fiery statement aimed at critics who have been questioning his public remarks and leadership style.
While addressing a crowd during a recent event, Ruto did not hold back. In a moment of visible frustration, the President challenged those who continually mock or dismiss his statements, asking whether they think he is careless or incapable of understanding what he says.
Ruto confronted his critics directly with the bold declaration:
“Mnaona kama mimi ni mlevi? Mnaona mimi ni mjinga? I know what I am saying!”
The President insisted that every statement he makes is intentional, calculated, and rooted in a clear understanding of the issues facing the country. He added that he is fully aware of the responsibilities of his office and does not speak casually or without purpose.
His remarks sparked a wave of reactions across social media, with supporters applauding his honesty and confidence, while critics said the outburst was unnecessary and showed growing pressure within the political environment.
Political analysts argue that Ruto’s comments reflect the increased scrutiny he faces over his frequent public speeches, some of which have triggered controversy or been widely debated online. They note that the President appears determined to defend his credibility and leadership amid rising political tensions ahead of the 2027 elections.
Despite the mixed reactions, Ruto maintained his stance, telling Kenyans that he remains focused on delivering his promises and will not be shaken by those attempting to undermine him through ridicule or misinterpretation of his words.
