The Dark Side of Ruto: How his Vengeful Nature Hinders his Presidential Performance | Kenya News
It is not uncommon for political leaders the world over to engage in heated debates and rivalries with their opponents. However, recent events in Kenya have raised questions about William Ruto's credibility as a President and whether he is willing to risk contradicting world experts just to hit back at Raila.
During a recent speech, Ruto made remarks that directly contradicted the opinions and recommendations of global experts. This has raised an issue that is too frequently being discussed by Ruto critics these days. And that is the serious concerns about whether Ruto's priority is the wellbeing of the nation or simply scoring political points against his adversary, Raila Odinga.
Is it just about proving Raila wrong at all costs and nothing else?
Throughout his political career, William Ruto, has been known for his vengeful behavior. Those who had forgotten this or were doubtful of this saw for themselves what happened in September 2022. Immediately after being sworn in, Ruto displayed his vengefulness by mocking members of the press who had been critical of his presidential bid.
There is no denying that William Ruto has an intriguing background, which undoubtedly shapes his political behavior. Born in Eldoret, Kenya, in 1966, Ruto hails from a humble background, rising from poverty to become president of Kenya. This experience of overcoming adversity could contribute to his vengeful behavior, as he might feel the need to prove himself and settle scores with those who doubted him.
Personal Ambitions and Political Rivalry
One possible explanation behind Ruto's vengefulness lies in his personal ambitions and the fierce political rivalry he faces. Throughout his career, he has encountered numerous setbacks and faced intense competition from fellow politicians. This environment could fuel his vengeful actions, as he seeks to assert his dominance and has the constant craving to prove his superiority over his rivals.
Media Criticism and Public Perception
Ruto's vengefulness towards the press stems from the often critical coverage he has received. The media has frequently scrutinized his actions, policies, and decisions. This critical reception might have triggered Ruto's vindictive nature, causing him to lash out at those who he perceives as obstructing his path to success.
Cultivating a Political Identity
Ruto's vengefulness could also be seen as a strategic move to cultivate a particular political identity. By presenting himself as a strong and resilient leader who does not shy away from confrontations, he appeals to a certain faction of the population. This calculated display of vengefulness may aim to garner support from those who feel marginalized or disregarded by others in power.
Political Instability and Uncertainty
Another factor contributing to Ruto's vengeful behavior could be the prevailing political instability and uncertainty in Kenya. As a politician operating in a turbulent environment, Ruto may feel the need to take decisive action and retaliate against those he perceives as threats. In such a context, vengefulness may be seen as a way to protect his interests and maintain control over the narrative surrounding his political career.
Is fearless Alfred Keter a re-incarnation of gallant Seroney?
Jean Marie Seroney is amongst the very few principled politicians Kenya has produced and indeed he has a lot of uncanny similarities to former Nandi Hills legislator who is now in the news, Alfred Keter.
Seroney engaged in covert political activities at the height of Kenya's emergency period in the fifties working with many of the early politicians such as Tom Mboya, Oginga Odinga, Dr. Julius Kiano and many others. He even joined Mboya's Airlift program and is known to have helped some Nandi youth to go to America to obtain a higher education. He also joined the Labour movement and became the secretary-general of the Kenya African Civil Servants Union. He gave legal advice and supported the Independence movement in many ways.

Can angry, broke Rift Valley bring down Ruto Presidency?
Welcome to the latest Kenya news analyzed by Kumekucha for the real inside story in Kenya politics and more; Former Nandi Hills MP Alfred Keter's hard-hitting remarks against the Kenya Kwanza government for betraying the very hustler platform William Ruto campaigned on, has brought to the fore a simmering rebellion in the Rift valley.
Actually the anti-Ruto sentiments in Ruto's own backyard are much deeper and more wide-spread than most Kenyans realize. And although there have been plenty of clues in recent times, most have been ignored anchored in the belief amongst many analysts that the "mtu wetu" syndrome is unshakeable. Those who belong to this school of thought have ignored the fact that many political obituaries have been written on politicians who even just "touched" the income of the electorate.
But the Alfred Keter bombshell is not the only clear sign that the Ruto administration is imploding...

Ruto man causes grown bearded men to shed real tears plus hot tips for the dark days
Welcome to the latest Kenya news analyzed by Kumekucha for the real inside story in Kenya politics and more; Ruto man Nandi Senator Samson Cherargei's words recently made grown Kenyan men cry. What exacyly did he say?
Cherargei's words also confirmed that what we have here is a government that is completely insensitive to the plight of ordinary Kenyans right across the country. Even as characters in the Ruto regime continue to flout their recently acquired massive wealth which poured in from the moment that William Ruto was declared President.
After the sad revelations in this video, Kumekucha desperately tries to offer some ray of hope even as Kenya clearly hangs over a cliff pointing stubbornly downwards...
In a shocking development, petrol prices speed past the Kshs 200 mark on a day that Azimio and Raila finally held their long anticipated presser. Where no big announcement is made but instead we get an analysis of the failures of the William Ruto and Kenya Kwanza regime.
Meanwhile Kenyans who have already been suffering great financial pain, are now rapidly coming to the realization that the country needs to brace herself for even more pain courtesy of the escalating fuel prices.
What is really going on here?
Interestingly Raila said in his remarks today that the government needs to act fast or face the fate that other insensitive governments have faced, especially in the recent past. Does this mean that the Azimio policy is to wait for the Ruto regime to implode or disintegrate?
And then there are the disturbing and persistent rumours about Martha Karua and her future in Azimio, which would not have come at a worse time. What next for Kenya?
A deep comprehensive Kumekucha analysis that illuminates the very scary place that the country called Kenya has reached.
Ruto shocking decision loading in Round 2: What will Raila do?
Consistent with his decision-making strategy so far, William Ruto is about to make a decision that will shake Kenya.
The big question is, how will Azimio and Raila Odinga respond? Because so far Raila has been slow and cautious in deciding what to do. Will this disadvantage the legendary politician as we enter the second, most vicious round of the political duel between Raila Odinga and William Ruto?

Ruto and Uhuru in brand new handshake
Did retired President Uhuru Kenyatta find himself with little or no options? Is this why several tell-tale signs indicate that a kind of truce between Uhuru and Ruto has happened? Like a handshake?
In a startling new development, it seems that William Ruto has managed to tame former President Uhuru Kenyatta. Uhuru and Ruto are in a new deal even as Raila plots his counter response. And what this means is that a major challenge faces Azimio's Raila Odinga going forward.
When things are too quiet on the political front, you can be sure that behind the scenes something major is cooking. By linking several recent political events in Kenya politics, this analysis unearths some eye-popping political bombshells whose impact will be felt long after they play out to their maximum.

Kinoti Still A Deadly Threat To UDA Govt | Kenya News
What Does George Kinoti Know That Makes Him A Threat?
We were told that former DCI boss George Kinoti resigned. Indeed he went quietly, only releasing a statement detailing his achievements at DCI.
But there is another side to this story...
According to Azimio leader Raila Odinga, President Ruto is governing whilst on a vengeful mission.
Raila says that for instance Ruto has had a grudge against former DCI boss George Kinoti from before the elections.
Actually this is not the first time a Kenyan president has come into office with scores (political and otherwise) to settle. But the last time round, it played out very differently.
Anti-Raila propaganda on steroids: The William Ruto UDA administration during campaigns made a name for itself in propaganda and the peddling of false news and information for political advantage. Something most Kenyans have forgotten to their detriment.
And that is why many were drawn into hot discussions about who will inherit Raila Odinga's political mantle and also about Agwambo's retirement from politics. This is coming at a time when these topics should really be none issues.
A coincidence? Or a carefully crafted campaign on steroids mainly targeting Raila Amollo Odinga?
Charles Rubia, the father of multi-party politics in Kenya was truly a gallant son of the motherland. And yet nobody remembers his earlier very different life on the right side of politics. Therein lies a key and very important lesson that should inspire every Kenyan to do better today so much so that nobody will remember their yesterday.
It did not start with mambo matatu: Did William Ruto start his careless panic statements in 2018 so much that he no longer thought through his statements and action? This would appear to be the case in this 2018 outburst which attracted lots of criticism from many corners of the country.
Big Kabogo blunder: The story of how William Kabogo lost the Kiambu governorship just because of one bizarre incident is a pointer to the erratic and unpredictable nature of this politician and politics in general.

Mind-boggling Revelations for the very first time that answer the biggest mystery of our time... what really happened between Uhuru and Ruto to cause this feud that will NOT go away.
The 1982 coup in Kenya and the events of 1st August 1982 have always been shrouded in mystery. Even now, 39 years later, there are many more questions than answers.
This amazing Kumekucha special report with information gathered over a number of years reveals a totally new shocking angle to the events of the day that changed the trajectory of Kenya and Kenyan politics forever.

The events that have been unfolding in West Africa and Central Africa have really excited Kenyans
And I dare say that Kenyan authorities should be very concerned that Kenyans are excited. They need to ask themselves why these coup events have really excited Kenyans.
But in the excitement there is a lot of misconception and even confusion, because most do not have experience in following international politics or even foreign news of what is happening in other countries.
And yet the way things are shaping up in Africa it is going to be increasingly important to understand very clearly what is happening in other African countries. There are two reasons;
1) It will help you understand what is happening locally in your country e.g. in Kenya
2) Trends are showing us very clearly that in most instances what happens elsewhere tends to spread to other African countries and could easily come to your country.

Raila's chess move: After the recent move by the ODM party to finally discipline errant politicians who have been voting with the government in parliament and supporting UDA positions, the question on the minds of Kenyans is what will happen next?
Most are skeptical, especially after Kenyans saw what was done to Uhuru Kenyatta's Jubilee Party recently as errant politicians grabbed it for William Ruto.
However in this instance, it seems that this is only the initial move by Raila Odinga in a larger scheme to deal even with those legislators who visit State house at night and ultimately to strengthen the party for a major looming political duel.
Why does Raila Odinga cause so much panic and terror amongst UDA and Kenya Kwanza ranks? Why do they fear Raila?
Kenya politics is very difficult to understand if all you dollow is Kenya news. The right analysis will make a huge difference.
Don't miss this super-golden opportunity.
The Kenya Kwanza and Ruto regime continues to embarrass itself and the country, this time on the world stage with a global audience watching.
An attempt to block Raila Odinga from attending the ongoing Climate summit in Kenya backfires badly as the enigma receives desperate invitations from International bodies.
It even causes the Interior PS Raymond to suddenly issue a stern statement changing the security protocol at the KICC which is the venue of the conference. And all this comes hot in the heels of Raila being temporarily blocked from entering Narok.
We attempt to decipher this bizarre and yet childish UDA government policy.
Keen analysts of Raila Odinga politics for sometime will have noted that the enigma has been behaving out of character in recent weeks. Indeed since the talks between the government and opposition kicked off.

Boni Khalwale's involvement in the 1982 coup attempt: At the time, Boni Khalwale was a First Year student at the University of Nairobi, pursuing a Bachelor's Degree in Medicine and Surgery (1981-1987).
With five of his colleagues, among them, Shem Ochuodho, David Murathe, student leader Titus Adungosi (deceased), the former MP stormed then Voice of Kenya (now KBC) offices, to declare that university students were in full support of the coup.
Meeting the mastermind of the revolution, Hezekia Ochuka, and other airforce officers in the studio, the very enthusiastic Khalwale was allowed to speak and declare his rebellious stand on behalf of his colleagues and university students as a whole at the time. (Watch YouTube video short to hear what he said).
Hezekiah Ochuka was intrigued by the bravery of the young men. The act, though seeming wise at that moment, earned Khalwale a one and a half year suspension from the university when the dust settled.
However, it worked in his favour because it signalled the start of his political career.
"I can’t help but laugh when I think about it today,” disclosed Khalwale. “I never even thought about the danger I was exposing myself to,” he added.
Are Kalonzo Musyoka and Raila Odinga reading from the same script? The two major principals of Azimio have been saying very different things about the same topic. And meanwhile Martha Karua has been trying to explain what Kalonzo really said, in this age of instant replay of video speeches where we can all hear clearly what somebody said.
Cries of pain, rage and frustration amongst long suffering wananchi (NOT wenye-nchi) caused by the savage tax raid on hapless Kenyans are understandable but will not change the fact that President William Ruto's government must continue borrowing and taxing Kenyans even more harshly to raise money to pay the debt the government is servicing, and also to pay for the reckless, careless-no-clue spending that is going on.
Earners of up to Sh24,000 still pay 10 per cent as tax; 25 per cent tax on the next Sh8,333 and 30 per cent for those earning Sh32,333 up to Sh499,999. Above that the 35 per cent tax will now kick in.

Ruto's first business deal: Most Kenyans know what Cyrus Jirongo told us about William Ruto's first business deal. He sold KANU T-shirts to Cyrus Jirongo.
He was supposed to deliver 10,000 T-shirts. He delivered the same 1000 T-shirts 10 times until the store records at Jirongo's office showed that he had delivered 10,000 T-shirts but in the stores of Jirongo
there were only 1,000 T-shirts. Where did the other 9,000 go?
Jirongo solved the mystery; there were never 9,000
T-shirts ever. Only the 1,000 delivered and taken back.
Then he joined YK 92. Now many people referring to this period often make the mistake of saying that Ruto was one of the big wigs in YK 92. That is NOT factual.
Watch the short: From chicken selling to Ruto's first controversial business deal that left Jirongo in tears
Kipruto arap Kirwa knows William Samoei Ruto very well and has told us that the weakness of Ruto is that he takes shortcuts in solving every problem.
He always wants to do things very quickly. Kirwa referred to the now very famous "three matatus" remarks by the president. Three matatus referring not to the vehicles but to three points Ruto talked about; you either leave the country, go to jail or we transport you to heaven. Kirwa said that the sugar industry is in a mess and the problems in the industry are complex. Kirwa said that because of Ruto's character of taking shortcuts and even as he campaigns for 2027, hence his behaviour in Mumias.

According to his own words Ruto started out as a chicken seller along the highway. Other information suggests that he did a lot of things to try and make money.
Which is okay. It is in fact good and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. And then the major breakthrough came when he got a job (not working in an office) but as a driver to Cyrus Jirongo, who was then a very influential KANU politician and this is where Ruto proved that he is super intelligent because just listening in into
conversations between his boss and other powerful people in Kenya, he managed to get his foot into Kenyan politics and into business.
Now of course about his first business deal, most Kenyans know about it. He sold KANU branded T-shirts to Cyrus Jirongo. Jirongo is still very bitter about that particular deal.

What is going on in Gabon?
It was just four days after Gabon held a presidential election that was disputed by the opposition but where incumbent Ali Bongo claimed victory. Army officers appeared on state television to announce they’d canceled the Aug. 26 vote and taken over. The citizens cheered wildly. Bongo first took office in 2009, succeeding his late father, who had been President since 1967. The ruling family’s grip on power has come under pressure in recent years. Soldiers already launched a failed coup in 2019, months after Bongo suffered a stroke that put him out of action for several months.
Gabon, is an oil producing country that rejoined OPEC in 2016 after a 21-years and pumps about 200,000 barrels of crude a day. It is a relatively small producer and so any disruptions in production are unlikely to impact world markets. But of much more concern to the international community is Gabon's role in the production of manganese, used to produce some of the hardest forms of steel.
The big elephant in the room that the Western media has missed here are the ordinary people in those countries that have suffered coups so far. It may be that ordinary Kenyans are "feeling" their West Africa brothers and sisters hence the reaction currently in the country of wondering if there is any concern in the corridors of power. Watch short: Coup caused corrupt leaders to try to swim to safety across ocean
It is clear that after the very dramatic events in Central and West Africa, things will never be the same again in Africa.
It is barely a month since Niger’s military toppled its president and then boom, Gabon’s army seized power, bringing to nine the number of military coups across sub-Saharan African since 2020. What is driving all these numerous coups? So far the western media has completely missed the elephant in the room, which I will come back to shortly.
Going forward hiding a server or rigging an election is going to prove very tricky indeed. Watch the short: After Gabon: How viable will it be to rig another election in Africa or hide a server?
Actually this thing of time is much more serious than what you think and it is even spiritual because we are given time and all of us are given the exact same amount of time. The billionaire entrepreneur has exactly the same time on his hands to spend every day as the poor man living in a slum somewhere in Kibra, Nairobi.
What most of us don't realize is that this time we have in our hands all the time, we will have to account for all of it one day. We will have to account for our time from the one who gave it to us. You're not here by accident you were brought here and you were given time to accomplish your mission not mine or anybody else's your particular mission on earth. And you were given a certain time in which to accomplish it (70 years to be precise give or take).
Time is much more precious than gold, money, silver, precious metals
Time should be looked at like money because indeed it is even more precious than money because you can lose money and you can recover it. But once you lose time it is gone forever there is no known technology that can help you recover your time. It is gone and gone forever.
And the saddest of all sad things is that one of the biggest thieves of this time (because we have agreed time is more precious than money) one of the biggest thieves of this time, this very precious thing called time, is distractions.
