“One that does not pit the West against the East, or the North against the South. We want one that is fair. This is about our people.”
After completing his speech Ruto appreciated the warm reception from the youthful crows.

“Inflaming the audience under the historical structure of the Eiffel Tower, Paris, France, with his magical words and superb presentation, President William Ruto is probably the most eloquent, greatest orator we have had at the pinnacle of power,” said Duale.
