He used the phrase "do not speak about things you do not know" and cautioned them against unfounded claims directed at him.
Ruto suggested he is aware of certain illegal activities carried out by some opposition figures. He declared that he would confront them directly if they continued on that path.
In a firm tone, he stated that anyone who chooses to proceed in that direction would face serious consequences.
The president expressed frustration over individuals who have been abusing him in churches, at burial ceremonies, and along roadsides. He said these people call him a killer and a thief while claiming he has done nothing for the country.
Ruto turned the question around, asking who the real thieves are. He specifically mentioned the Ruaraka land and the Yatta land, questioning who stole money from the coffee sector.
Ruto challenged the opposition by asking who among them and himself qualifies as the thief. He made it clear that he knows the truth and is ready to act.
The remarks come at a time of heightened political tension as opposition groups continue to criticize the government on various issues. Observers say the president's strong language shows growing impatience with what he sees as baseless attacks.
Political analysts note that such direct confrontations could further polarize the already divided political landscape in Kenya. The message has sparked mixed reactions, with some supporters praising Ruto for speaking firmly while critics accuse him of intimidation.
