President William Ruto addressed the ongoing anti-government protests in Kenya, condemning the violence and destruction caused during demonstrations. He stated that he would not allow 'anarchy' disguised as peaceful protests, and asserted that property destruction would be met with severe consequences. The protests have led to a significant death toll, with calls for better governance and accountability from the government. Ruto accused political opponents of trying to undermine his administration and emphasized that leadership should be determined through elections, not violence. The unrest mirrors public frustration over job scarcity and police brutality.
"Anyone going to burn people's property should be shot in the leg, be hospitalized and later taken to court upon recovery. Do not kill them but break their leg."
"You can call me whatever names you want to call me, but I will make sure there is peace and stability in Kenya by all means."
"This is a democratic country, and the citizens are the ones who determine its leadership through an election. We cannot decide leadership through violence."
