Former Mukurwe-ini MP Kabando wa Kabando has urged President William Ruto to embrace his critics, saying those who criticise him do so with a clean heart and bear no hatred.

"Rais Ruto, don't be lied to that your critics hate you. You know some of us well, we'll say it with clean hearts," Kabando said on Monday. 

"Even in Kibaki's and Uhuru's era, we spoke boldly against any excesses."

Political analysts and some politicians have been vocal with their opinions about the President with some praising him, others faulting him.

Senate Speaker Amason Kingi, full of praise for the President, said Ruto is a 'miracle president' who rose from nothing to the pinnacle of the country's political leadership.

''You are a miracle president and therefore your presidency will be smooth,'' Kingi said during the interdenominational prayers at Sagana State Lodge on Sunday. 

On the other hand, former UDA vice chairman Kipruto Kirwa described Ruto's style of leadership as micro-management.

"He (Ruto)  will spend a lot of time micro-managing a department such that ministers are in perpetual fear," Kirwa said during an interview with K24.
