Deputy President William Ruto met with former Central Bank of Kenya Governor Njuguna Ndung'u, who pledged to help him develop a new economic model through the African Economic Research Consortium. Ruto said that the state of the global economy demands new thinking, bold ideas, and fresh paradigms. This is why we are proposing a bottom-up approach to develop the economy,” Ruto said. Njuguna is an economist, as well as economic researcher who served as CBK’s governor for two consecutive four-year terms, from March 2007 until March 2015. “It is gratifying to see economic experts endorsing this approach and expressing willingness to partner with us to actualise this revolution.”
