President William Ruto addressing residents of Njiru Junction on March 14, 2025/DPCSPresident William Ruto now says that Kenyans should judge him based on what he will have done for the country in 2027.
Speaking at Njiru Junction on Friday, Ruto said elections are in 2027, and it is the people who will decide who their leader will be.

“Tusikizane rafiki zangu, sasa ni 2025, uchaguzi utakuwa 2027. Nyinyi ndio mtaamua kulingana na ile kazi mtu amefanya. Kila mtu afanye bidii. Kazi yangu nitafanya. Nitapanga ajira ya hawa vijana, barabara zenu, maji, madarasa, nitasomesha watoto wenu tukutane 2027 na wale wako na maneno. Nyinyi ndio mtaamua watu wa Njiru, kila mtu atapimwa na kazi yake,” Ruto said.
This loosely translates to, “Listen to me, my friends; it is now 2025, and the elections will be in 2027. You will decide based on the work that someone has done. Everyone should work hard. I will do my job. I will plan employment for these young people; your roads, water, classrooms—I will educate your children. Let's meet in 2027 with those who have issues. You shall decide. People of Njiru, everyone will be judged by their work.”
