President William Ruto now says that by making him the leader
of Kenya, God gave him an assignment to transform the country.
Speaking after a church service at the United Pentecostal Church of Kenya in Dagoretti North, Nairobi, Ruto said he has every intention to fulfill the assignment given to him by God.
He went on to say that this is the reason he decided to reach out to all leaders, including those in opposition, to work together towards actualising God’s plan for the country.
The President insisted that one person, political party, or region cannot transform the country alone.
“There is a job God has given me to lead this nation and an assignment to transform Kenya, and I have every intention to make sure we transform our nation. It is the reason I am ready to work with all leaders and unite all Kenyans to fulfil God's plan. One man, one party, one region cannot do it but all of us united, we can achieve much together,” Ruto said.
He added that he is a very proud President of the Republic of Kenya and very grateful to God for making it possible.
Ruto further told off critics who have been saying that he will be a one-term president and those saying he should rule for more than two terms.
According to the Head of State, a few years ago, there were those who believed he would never be president, a position he holds now and is grateful to God for.
“Kuna watu wanaongea mambo ya one term, two terms, three terms. Pale nyuma kuna watu walifikiria sitakuwa hata na term. Nimefurahi sana Mungu amenipatia nafasi hii niwe kiongozi wa Kenya. I am a very proud President of the Republic of Kenya.”
The President was accompanied by a host of leaders, including Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja.
