The Opposition chief Raila Odinga has blasted President William Ruto over the high cost of living and oppressing members of opposition as well as followers
Speaking during the burial ceremony of the late widow Mukami Kimathi, who was wife to freedom fighter Field Marshall Dedan Kimathi, Raila told Ruto face to face that he don’t fear him
“Unafikiri sisi tunakugopa, sisi hapana ogopa wewe, wananchi wanaona bei ya unga iko juu na bidhaa zingine na badala ya uzungumzie hilo unatuma polisi kutupiga risasi na tear gas.
Ni haki yetu kuandamana na katiba inaruhusu uhuru wa kuandamana, there’s between defensive oppression and offensive oppression, what police are doing to protesters is offensive oppression thanks to your orders,” fearless Raila told President Ruto
However, President William Ruto attending the same burial defended his government over the high cost of living terming opposition protests as ironical
Dr Ruto said that his government has drastically reduced prices of basic commodities to the rate of 20 percent reduction
“When we took over there were so many things going wrong for example the kenya’s economy had deteriorated but as of now, we are moving to the nice trajectory.
We have reduced the price of unga and other commodities so what you are telling me is not true because am in charge of the daily businesses of the government,” Head of State stated.
