President William Ruto spoke out against his critics on Thursday. He said they should stop making "empty threats." Ruto thinks his opponents need to wait until the next election. Then, everyone can share their plans for the country.
Right now, Ruto believes he is only competing with himself. He wants to focus on his own achievements, which include work in agriculture, health care, electricity, housing, and roads. Ruto challenged his rivals to get organized. He said they should do more than just talk.
The President explained why some campaign promises are delayed. He said the economy was in bad shape when he took office. It needed to be fixed first. Ruto stated that this has already been done.
He pointed to improvements in key economic indicators. Inflation has dropped from 9% to 2.7%. The exchange rate is better. Interest rates have also gone down. Ruto expressed confidence in the country's economic standing. He said Kenya is now ready to tackle other challenges.
The President shared these thoughts during a visit to Elgeyo Marakwet County to check on the progress of a local road project.
