President William Ruto has criticized Githunguru Member of Parliament Gathoni Wamuchomba after she voted against the Finance Bill in the National Assembly.
Speaking on Saturday, June 17, during the Githunguri Dairy Cooperative Society field day, President Ruto asked the locals if they were also against the Finance bill which he said would create jobs for the youth through the Housing program.
The Head of State stated that the program is being supported even by MPs from the Azimio la Umoja coalition.
“Wabunge wote wamepiga kura, kusema wacha tupange ajira ya hawa vijana…. mpaka wabunge wa upinzani wamekubali kwamba hii mpango yetu iko sawa, si tuendelee na hiyo mpango? Naskia ati nyinyi watu wa Githunguri mnasema hamtaki mambo ya housing? Hawa vijana wengi barabarani nitatoa wapi kazi ya kuwapatia, si ni lazima nipange housing?” Ruto posed.

“Wakulima wangu asanteni sana kwa kunishikilia na kuniombea, na mimi nina apa ya kwamba nitafanya kazi yangu kama mjumbe bila kuogopa na bila kuingiza baridi,” she stated.
