Though Ruto has since withdrawn the controversial bill and reshuffled his cabinet to appease the aggrieved youths, the anti-government protesters have insisted that the President must resign.
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo delivered a keynote address, emphasising the importance of collective African efforts in driving economic growth and prosperity
The former Nigerian President recently visited the East African nation, where he delivered the keynote address at a Youth Convention organised by the Kenyan School of Government and the Youth Bridge Kenya.
Reacting to the report, the national Vice Chairperson of the Communist Party of Kenya, Booker Ngesa Omole, questioned whose interest the former President was representing.
“This guy called Olusegun Obasanjo who’s here in our country, whose interest is he representing? Now we’re told there’s going to be a government of national unity. Unity for who and whose interest?
“Afterall, Raila Amolo Odinga and William Samuel Ruto are part of the problem in this country. In a sense that they’re negotiating to eat on top of the dead bodies of our comrades that have been martyred by the state,”Omole said in a video posted on X.

“I hope our Kenyan brothers and sisters understand that “Chief” Olusegun Obasanjo, who is trying to “broker peace” in Kenya, has never been part of anything good in his life. The former Nigerian President should be put inside the next departing aircraft from Kenya. Otherwise, you would watch your revolutionary gains vanish like the Nigerian treasury under his watch. Please stay away from OBJ, Kenyans,” Sowore said.
The Government of National Unity represents the narrow intrests of the Kenyan Comprador class which is subservient to International Finance Capital. The tide of Change has come and the people must exercise their power. @CommunistsKe #RutoMustGo #Tuesday pic.twitter.com/WrUN6E9bS2
