Farouk Kibet serves as President William Ruto's assistant in Kenya, becoming someone many call a "co-president." He walks through the State House, giving orders that everyone follows, including top officials who seem afraid of him. His power reminds people of Nicholas Biwott from the Moi government years ago—a behind-the-scenes figure with huge influence.

Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua recently said on TV that Kibet has way more power than his job title suggests. "Ministers tremble in his presence," Gachagua claimed, adding that Kibet wanted to "turn my office into a corruption den." According to Gachagua, Kibet runs the government alongside Dennis Itumbi, with everyone from police chiefs to cabinet members reporting to him.

Videos show Kibet directing high-ranking officials during public events, once physically moving Deputy President Kindiki closer to President Ruto during a performance. He started as a local politician and letter writer before joining Ruto's team, which changed his life completely. He attends many church fundraisers and brings political figures to his events.

With his serious stare and strong personality, Kibet maintains firm control over government matters. Though he never speaks to critics directly, just hearing his name worries both the administration's friends and enemies. His influence remains untouchable as long as Ruto remains president.
