Deputy President Kindiki traveled around Mount Kenya with President Ruto for five days. He made clear that people from this area back the president fully. During his travels, Kindiki fired back at friends who labeled him as someone who just says "yes" all the time. He said he helps the president without taking his power away. Kindiki told a crowd in Laikipia County on April 1, 2025, that his job means backing up Ruto and working with other leaders to make sure promises reach everyday Kenyans.
Kindiki shared how certain people pushed him to stand against President Ruto. He turned them down flat because his real duty involves supporting the president and making sure plans happen for Kenya. Ruto asked Kindiki to break up groups hurting Miraa farmers. When speaking in Maua town, located in Meru County, on April 2, 2025, Kindiki promised action against these harmful groups. He compared this new task to his past work fighting cattle thieves when he ran the Interior ministry.
The Deputy President made clear he knows exactly what path he walks. People mock him as loyal, but he pointed out that Ruto himself stayed loyal to former President Uhuru Kenyatta for ten years straight. Kindiki stressed he must stay faithful to help Ruto succeed with his plans for the country. Just yesterday, he said government leaders will not waste breath answering critics who offer nothing better for Kenya. He repeated that his main duty is to help and defend Ruto, not fight him.
Kindiki explained that their tour focuses on growth projects and talking with local people about what they need most. As part of their work, they started building a huge modern market in Kagio Town that will cost Sh310 million. This market will give space to more than 2,000 sellers and create a safe place to meet customers. The Deputy President joined Ruto at the Kibiru Beef Feedlot opening in Tigania West. This place gathers animals from local groups to boost livestock production across the area.
The leadership team handed out 10,800 land titles to ensure local owners had proper papers for their land. They also opened the Nkuene Power Substation and started the Last Mile Connectivity program, bringing electricity to more homes in Meru County. President Ruto publicly called on Kindiki to keep his loyal support as they built the nation together. The Deputy President has stuck firmly to his message about staying true to his role beside the president despite what critics might say about him.
