Nyeri mourners on Friday sent a bold message to President William Ruto and his administration.
This was after Public Service CS Moses Kuria attempted to defend Kenya Kwanza during a burial ceremony of Jimi Wanjigi’s father’s Maina Wanjigi.

Kuria received a cold reception from mourners forcing him to end his speech prematurely. The crowd was heard chanting "Ruto must go" in unison.

Speaking on Friday, July 5, at State House, Nairobi, President William Ruto acknowledged the past two weeks as a challenging period for the country, marked by loss of life, injuries, and property damage.
His comments come amid increasing criticism of his administration over proposed taxes, corruption among State officers, and high unemployment rates among the youth.
Ruto faced backlash on Sunday, June 30, across social media platforms for perceived failures to fulfill his promises to Kenyans, including the use of excessive police force.
