UDA National Youth Leader Kariuki Ngunjiri has asked the Opposition to be patriotic and support well-meaning initiatives by the Kenya Kwanza administration. “Critics have their right to keep him (President William Ruto) in check, but not shoot down genuine efforts for the sake of the country," he said. On Tuesday, Ngunjiri said the President has displayed courage in facing reality as it is, and rather than sugar-coating the situation. He said the ascension of Ruto to power is similar to that of Winston Churchill as the British Prime Minister amid a ravaging catastrophe- World War II in 1940. Ngunjiri added that, just like Churchill during the World War, the economic challenges, and noise from the opposition, test President Ruto’s qualities as a leader.
