It would take sacrifice, according to President William Ruto, to improve the lives of those who live in slums. He termed his economic model as the one which will be able to liberate people at the bottom of the pyramid. "If our freedom fighters had asked themselves, how is it their business to go and fight for the freedom of the whole country, we would still be slaves. They made a sacrifice to liberate us, we need to make a sacrifice to liberate people from the slums," he said. In addition, the President stated that by the year 2050, urban centers will be home to more than fifty percent of Kenya's population.
