President William Ruto’s aide Farouk Kibet has said the head of state is caring and can not ignore the input Kenyans have on the Finance Bill.
Farouk said youths should not be misled to engage in protests yet the same Finance Bill has provisions that would help to tap their potential.
“Our president is a caring and listening leader and we ask that Kenyans including youths be patient as he works to grow our economy,” Farouk said.
He said the protests by the youths should be done within the law and that those with views on the bill had various ways to contribute to the same.
He said the bill once enacted would support local industries to grow and create jobs for youth.
Farouk was speaking at ACK Soimining Church in Nandi where presided over fundraising for the church.
He said Kenyans were using imported goods which can easily be manufactured locally thus creating jobs for the youth.
He said the president was having sleepless nights as he worked on strategies to revive the economy.
“Our president has been very clear on the vision he has for this country and he is not a leader who can ignore the same people he leads,” Farouk said.
He urged MPs and all leaders to support the president and focus on development.
“We have elected MPs and we should allow them to represent us because they also know where our country is headed,” Farouk said.
He said there was no need for Kenyans to harass and intimidate Mps or other leaders who support the Finance Bill.
Farouk cautioned Kenyans to remain united and avoid anyone who preaches tribalism.
He urged the church to pray for the president and the continued stability of the country.
He urged professionals from various parts of the country to also support development at the grassroots level.
