President Ruto scolded some people at a Githunguri rally when they yelled during a speech. He visited the Mt Kenya area for five days, stopping in the Nyeri and Kiambu counties. The crowd started making noise when Kiambu Woman Rep Anne Wamuratha spoke to them. All the shouting forced her to finish talking fast. After she stepped away, Ruto asked the noisy crowd where they picked up such rude habits.
"Who taught you how to yell at people? The noise should stop right there," Ruto told the loud group. Leaders have faced angry crowds before when standing near the President. During his travels around Mt Kenya, several speakers met hostile audiences who shouted them down. On Tuesday, MP Kimani Ichungw'ah tried addressing people in Ol Kalou, Nyandarua county, but things went badly. The trouble began just after ICT CS William Kabogo finished speaking.
When Ichungw'ah climbed on his car to talk, the crowd turned against him as he tried explaining government plans. He told the hecklers in Kikuyu language that nobody scared him, but nobody listened. The angry people at the rally kept shouting, making it impossible for him to keep talking. No matter how hard he tried calming everyone down, they refused to hear anything he said. Ichungw'ah traveled with other leaders alongside President Ruto during his trip to check projects across the region.
Many leaders have experienced this problem lately when speaking at public events. The crowds seem less patient with certain officials when they step up to address them. Ruto appeared surprised by how the people treated these speakers during his visits. The President clearly wanted more respect shown toward anyone who came forward to talk. Public meetings have become challenging for government officials trying to connect with residents.
The pattern continued throughout several stops on the President's journey. Officials find themselves facing unhappy citizens eager to express disapproval through loud interruptions. Ruto's reaction shows his concern about maintaining order at these important community gatherings. Residents used these opportunities to show which speakers they supported and which ones they rejected. The President's comments suggest he believes such behavior damages productive political discussion during these official visits.
