Former President Uhuru Kenyatta has called out President Ruto’s administration, accusing it of undoing gains made under his government.
Speaking during the Jubilee Party National Delegates Conference, Uhuru pointed to the scrapping of the Linda Mama program, which offered free maternal healthcare.
He argued that the program was replaced with untested schemes that has left many Kenyans suffering.

Uhuru warned that the country was sliding backward by dwelling on politics and rhetoric instead of focusing on development.
The former Head of State moreover argued that what were once dismissed as myths during the campaigns have now become the harsh reality for ordinary Kenyans.
Uhuru also revisited the 2022 General Election, saying his warnings about leadership and governance were ignored in favor of divisive narratives.
Talking about national security, Uhuru defended his record, highlighting investments made to strengthen the country’s security apparatus.
However, he cautioned that the system should never be turned against the people it was designed to protect.
