Nandi Senator Samson Cherargei has dared Azimio la Umoja leader Raila Odinga to call for nationwide anti-government demonstrations tomorrow.
Speaking on Friday, December 29, the UDA senator said Kenyans have confidence in President William Ruto’s leadership.
"We don't understand why he (Raila) says he wants to call for a demonstration, but we want to ask him if he wants to organize a demonstration, he shouldn't wait until next year; he should start tomorrow because the citizens have faith in the government of President William Ruto,” said Cherargei.
The Nandi Senator went on to say that the opposition leader should be thanking the Kenya Kwanza administration for not defaulting on external debts.
"I think the time for scaring Kenyans is over, he should even be grateful. You see, other countries default on their debt, but Kenya has not defaulted because we have been able to repay our public debt, which has troubled many nations,” Cherargei added.
