President Ruto fired back at his political rivals, saying Kenyans will not vote based on tribal lines, anger, or hate in 2027. He urged opponents to develop clear plans instead of pushing division among citizens. He told Rongo residents that voters will judge candidates on their ideas for development rather than personal traits.

"You will decide who leads - not because of beauty but because of plans for roads, electricity, water," Ruto said to the crowd. His comments came just after opposition figures met at former Deputy President Gachagua's home, where they announced plans to team up against him in the next election.

Key leaders at that gathering included Kalonzo Musyoka, Eugene Wamalwa, Fred Matiang'i, and Martha Karua. Ruto challenged these rivals to present specific proposals for agriculture, jobs, and infrastructure rather than stirring up negative feelings. He stressed that he remains focused on his current duties serving Kenyans.

"Elections will happen in 2027, but right now we are working for citizens," he stated. "When that time arrives, we will face our competitors at the ballot."
