Public Service Cabinet Secretary Geoffrey Ruku Tuesday dismissed claims that President William Ruto intends to rig the next General Election, terming the allegations as baseless and politically motivated.
Speaking during a Special Programmes outreach event in Chakaleri, Mwatate, in Taita Tabatha County Ruku urged leaders to refrain from spreading falsehoods and instead acknowledge the significant development strides made by the Kenya Kwanza administration.
“President Ruto will win the next General Election not through manipulation, but because of his tangible track record in service delivery,” Ruku stated.
“These are not just promises but real, visible projects are already changing lives on the ground in under two years.”
To support his remarks, the Cabinet Secretary highlighted ongoing government initiatives in Taita Taveta County, where over Sh3 billion has been invested in key sectors including infrastructure, education, housing, energy, and market modernization.
Among the flagship infrastructure projects are the construction of the 70-kilometre Elasit–Njukini–Taveta Road and the tarmacking of the 58-kilometre Mtomwagodi–Bare–Idage–Bura Road. Both projects aim to boost connectivity and open up market access in the region.
