Omari Explains Why Ruto Is A Better President Compared To Kibaki
Attorney Danstan Omari expressed the view that President William Ruto is a more effective leader than the late Mwai Kibaki.
In an interview on Monday, December 4, with K24, Omari noted that President Ruto has successfully increased revenue through various avenues in comparison to Kibaki’s term.
The outspoken lawyer highlighted Ruto’s innovative approaches to revenue generation, asserting that he has explored diverse methods beyond those employed by any other Kenyan president.
“If indeed the president wants to compare himself to the late Kibaki, I’ll tell everybody for free that the President is far much better than Kibaki. Shem Ochuodho, Raila Odinga were in that government. Kibaki never raised revenue to the level of President William Ruto is raising,” said Omari.
He added, “The sectors that he has gone to look for funds is totally very virgin. In every sector the president is raising revenue and therefore we expect that he has more money than Kibaki, Uhuru, and Moi had.”
Nevertheless, Omari pointed out that the primary issue in the Ruto administration lies in the expenditure of the generated funds.
He mentioned that President Ruto has not yet closed loopholes that could potentially result in the misappropriation of public resources.
The prominent lawyer went on to emphasize that the mismanagement of public resources is a significant factor hindering the government from effectively tackling the challenges associated with the high cost of living.
“The only problem is the usage of this money. Kibaki raised revenue and completely sealed the leakages for that money. No coin could be stolen under the watch of Kibaki,” Omari stated.
