A fuming President William Ruto on Wednesday vowed to deal with those plotting to oust him from power unconstitutionally.
Speaking at the Kilimani Police Station after inspecting a police housing project, President Ruto said that he will not allow anyone to use violence to remove him from the nation’s top seat.
He dared anyone to attempt the move before the 2027 General Election, noting that he can no longer maintain his silence and “enough is enough”.
“I want to tell those characters giving us lectures that they can change this administration using violence and unlawful means before 2027, let them try,” he roared.
“This is a democratic nation and Kenyans will choose the nation’s leadership through the ballot. We cannot choose leadership through violence. That is not going to happen in this country.”
The president further fired at his detractors, questioning why his regime is being violently attacked while his predecessors did not receive similar backlash.
“They are telling me about Moi…he was a president, the same way Kibaki was a president, same as Uhuru, so where is all this coming from? That is nonsense!
“Why didn’t they cause chaos during Kibaki’s time or Uhuru’s? Why are you causing this during my time? That needs to stop.”
The vexed president further insisted that he will “use whatever means that is available” to ensure that national security is upheld and those sponsoring violence have been dealt with decisively.
“Those who were found looting people’s businesses will be dealt with by the law, and they will all be arrested and we are going for those sponsoring them,” he said.
“Anyone going to attack a police station in Kenya, that is a declaration of war. It is not acceptable. Enough is enough. I will protect the property and the lives of Kenyans.”
This comes after a series of protests were held across the nation since June 12, 2025, that led to the destruction of businesses, infiltration of politically sponsored goons, and deaths of innocent protesters and civilians.
