No maandamano on Wednesday – Ruto talks tough in warning to Raila
The head of state added that using extrajudicial and extra-constitutional means to seek power is unacceptable and urged Odinga to wait for the next elections in 2027.
He also declared that there will be no handshake, referring to the previous political agreement between Uhuru Kenyatta and Raila Odinga that he believes has harmed Kenya.
“I want to say that there will be no protests in Kenya again. The one they are planning for on Wednesday will not happen,” he said.
He challenged that the path the opposition had taken would not help the country and if they maintain that path, he would deal with them.
President Ruto’s remarks followed a declaration by the Azimio la Umoja coalition party that they would intensify their anti-government protests to three times a week.
