President William Ruto has urged Kenyans to be patriotic and uphold the ideals of the country's forefathers. President Ruto expressed concern that Kenya was being appreciated by outsiders, but some Kenyans were disparaging their nation. President Ruto cited the example of the United States-based travel agency Lonely Planet that recognised Nairobi as the best destination to visit in 2024. "As Kenyans, we have many reasons to love our country despite the challenges facing us. These challenges will soon be resolved," President Ruto stated.
