A recent TIFA Research survey reveals widespread disapproval of the Ruto-Raila coalition government among Kenyan citizens. The poll demonstrates that 37 percent of participants view the arrangement as prioritizing individual benefits over national welfare. Democracy suffers when opposition parties join ruling administrations, according to 27 percent of those questioned. Public development needs remain unaddressed by current leadership, claim 17 percent of survey participants. Additional concerns center on increased corruption opportunities and leadership credibility issues.
TIFA researchers conducted telephone interviews between late August and early September 2025, reaching 2,024 participants across nine regional zones. The collaboration between President William Ruto and opposition leader Raila Odinga began formally in March 2025 following widespread cabinet dismissals. Ruto previously removed ministers after citizen protests against tax policies and corruption allegations occurred in July 2024. The president maintains that unified governance prevents ethnic divisions while maximizing national development potential. Survey results carry a statistical margin of error below 2.2 percent.
