Embakasi East MP Babu Owino has urged President William Ruto to take time off his recent tours across the country.
Speaking on Friday, August 16, Owino said the President should sit down with his advisors and the new cabinet to review and change bad policies in the country.
He asked President Ruto to consider the welfare of the children and engage the youth to show them that he cares for them.
“As a youthful leader in this country, I want to appeal to you in a special way that you take your time off the top of your vehicles and sit down with your top advisors including your new cabinet, and review and change the bad policies that your administration unleashed on Kenyans for the last two Financial Years,” said the Embakasi East MP.
Owino pointed out that Kenyans are concerned that the Finance Bill 2025 will be introduced in 2025 and will find no changes introduced by the Kenya Kwanza government.

“Mr, President it is a matter of just a few months and another Finance Bill 2025 will be facing Kenyans again. The young people of Kenya are worried that March 2025 will find them with no change at all, and they will be forced back to the streets to protest poor governance and poor policies and to reject the Finance Bill 2025,” he remarked.
Owino asked the Head of State to take practical steps to demonstrate that he has the interests of the youths of Kenya at heart.
At the same time, the Embakasi East MP observed that the young people feel that the President has ignored their issues reverting to business-as-usual mode.
“The young people are not happy with the fact that you have refused to offer compensation for the families whose loved ones were shot and killed by the police on the instructions of your agents,” Owino added.
