A section of youth leaders has challenged President William Ruto to include Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi and National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetangula to the list of those who should retire with him in 2032.
Responding to the President at the "Bonga Nasi dialogue" forum organised by the Youth Agenda organisation on Wednesday, they stated that the statement from the President was not in order, saying they were ready to bring leadership change from 2027 and not 2032, as the President said.
"If he is sure he wants to retire, let him first retire the kind of Mudavadi, Wetangula and others before 2027, and then we can see the seriousness," said Noah Adipo.
"It is a good narrative but coming from the wrong person. Ruto is taking it too far; it should start happening by 2027," said Ken Babu, who is aspiring to be a Nairobi senator.
They also alleged that among the youthful people that the President named from his side whom he accused Gachagua of attacking, had enriched themselves and therefore were not worthy to take up the mantle.
"He (Ruto) has nurtured people who have enriched themselves with resources and benefited from our resources, leading us to debt, which is worrying," said Noah, who is an MCA aspirant in Njiru ward.
