This man goes around the country like a jobless person making irresponsible remarks and false promises which point out to a very harsh reality: the katiba has been abused and now they we have an imperial president who has the treasury via the finance CS and PS.

If you expect the completion of a project after kasongo launch then you are stupidly positive

Juzi nimeona a huge complex he initiated in Suswa along the Narok road to be a place for car auctions. It's just empty with just some guards roaming around after millions were pumped there. Ufala tupu.

Tanga tanga master was launching project after project during UK tenure, (of course conveniently blame his boss for not allowing him complete them) hadi akambiwa awache kusmama juu ya gari arudi Ofisi.
He has never stepped in harambee Hse sjui tangu lini.
AS you rightfully said, this guy has no respect for his bosses. Including the pple who made him president.

Ruto leaned so heavily into populism that he’s now trapped in a classic positive feedback loop—he has to keep making promises and flashy launches just to maintain momentum. The moment he stops, he’d actually have to engage with real policy work, which he seems either unwilling or unprepared to do. It's all political theater at this point, and the longer it goes on, the harder it becomes to break the cycle.
