Nairobi Woman Representative Esther Passaris has declared her admiration for President William Ruto.

In a video posted on her TikTok account, Passaris called out critics threatening to vote her out in 2027.

She affirmed that she is a hard worker and that the threats will not see the light of the day.

"Don't threaten me with 2027, with the one you're going to vote for. You don't even know whether you will be alive by then, get real," she said.

Passaris called out critics of the Finance Bill 2024 saying that the President needs funds to run the country.

She, however, said that there are some things she disagrees with in the Finance Bill 2024.

"Those of you who keep calling me 'Msaliti' because I voted for the Finance Bill 2023, well, there is going to be another one coming and even though there are some issues I may disagree with, I'm gonna vote for the Finance Bill 2024," she said.

"We are going to try and make sure that the finance bill is going to be less harsh on the people but remember, we are a country that is in a bad space."

The legislator went ahead to express her admiration of President William Ruto saying he loves how he runs the government.

According to Passaris, one of Ruto's agenda, the Finance Bill 2024 is meant to help Kenyans and she will throw her weight behind the President to ensure it succeeds.

According to her, being in Azimio does not necessarily mean she hates the President.

"Just because I'm in Azimio and I'm a Baba Girl, I also admire Ruto, I admire the President, so get with it. I don't give a crap what you think. Just because I'm in Baba's party, doesn't mean I have to hate Ruto. It is not in my being. I love the President, I love the way he does things. I love his dedication to serving this country," she confessed.

Passaris added her admiration for the President grew after he came out to help a schoolgirl who did not want to go to school but the president looked to convince her to go to school.

According to Passaris, the President touched her life in a special way that she will never forget.

"You can't hate from Monday to Friday for the whole year," she said.
