Linda Mwananchi Movement (LMM) leader Edwin Sifuna has urged young Kenyans to reject President William Ruto at the ballot box in the next general election, warning that another five years under the current administration will derail youth leadership prospects in 2032.
Speaking on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, during a media briefing where the movement formally received defectors from the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) in Laikipia County, Sifuna challenged Kenyan youth to take control of their political destiny.
“Nataka kuwaambia vijana wote mkichagua Ruto tena hakuna kijana atakuwa kiongozi 2032,” Sifuna said.
Sifuna directed sharp criticism at ongoing government infrastructure commitments, highlighting the long-delayed Nanyuki-Doldol road project as proof of unfulfilled political pledges. He assured local residents that his team would prioritize genuine service delivery over repeated campaign talk.
“Barabara ya kutoka Nanyuki kwenda Doldol tumesikia kwa miaka nyingi. Saa hii msiongee na Ruto, mimi nitakuja nitengeneze,” he stated.
Reminding citizens to prioritize personal safety and well-being above grand development pledges, Sifuna pointed out that infrastructure holds no value without basic protection for human life.
“If you are not alive, hata barabara ya Doldol ikijengwa haitakusaidia,” he remarked.
He maintained that political leaders can secure elective seats by engaging voters honestly rather than relying on empty promises, revealing plans to launch extensive tours across Laikipia to solidify the movement’s local presence.
