Public Service Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria has stated that President William Ruto can only leave office through another election.
Kuria made the remarks during an interview with Citizen TV on Wednesday July 10, 2024, when he said that President Ruto was elected by the people of Kenya and can only be removed from office through another election.
“Ruto didn’t come, he was elected and there is another election coming,” said Moses Kuria.
At the same time, the Public Service CS advised youth, especially Gen Z to register as voters and use their large numbers to vote in leaders of their choice in the next elections.
“People are saying Ruto must go but Ruto didn’t come, he was elected and another election is coming. The only way for Ruto to go is through the vote,” Kuria said.
Kuria told Citizen TV’s JKL that youths under the Gen Z movement should shun their antagonism with the government and instead wait for the next election cycle to elect the leaders of their choice.
He asserted that the youths form the biggest chunk of Kenya’s population hence should use their numbers to drive positive change.
“In 2022, 8 million people did not vote and those are the Gen-Z’s,” the CS said.
Kuria noted that Kenya is the only country in Africa that has had a track record of consistent elections, warning that there is a risk of losing this tradition.
Youths under the Gen Z movement have sustained their calls for reforms in the country, with some quotas calling for the resignation of the Head of State.
