Morara challenges hypocrisy in anti-Ruto campaigns
Inclusive National Justice, Economic & Civic Transformation (INJECT) party leader Morara Kebaso has challenged what he has termed as hypocrisy in the ongoing campaigns against President William Ruto.
Taking to his official X account on the night of Friday, June 13, 2025, Morara argued that it is the hypocrisy in the anti-Ruto campaigns that has led to the return of tribalism.
According to Morara, tribalism has resurfaced because some leaders told Kenyans that their problem with Ruto is corruption, but ended up supporting a corrupt opposition to remove the head of state.
“DO YOU KNOW WHY TRIBALISM HAS COME BACK? Because you told Kenyans that your problem with Ruto is corruption, but you started supporting a corrupt opposition to remove Ruto,” Morara stated.
Morara on Kenyans
Morara, who rose to fame by advocating for government accountability, says that he was called names when he tried to correct Kenyans, with some branding him as a government project.
“So, a right-thinking Kenyan is now wondering whether your issue is corruption or a Kalenjin president. Hapo ndio mlipotea. When I tried to correct you, mliniita majina conman, project, beggar, etc. You said I have joined Ruto, which was false. I was just asking you a simple question: “What are we fighting for?” Anyway, this country belongs to the people; they can do whatever they want with it,” he stated.
Gachagua’s cousin remarks
He further took issue with former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua’s recent remarks on cousins, noting that the move might lead to people uniting along tribal lines in 2027 to vote for their people, who might later decide to have a handshake after they are elected, leaving the people on their own.
“Bantus can call each other ‘cousin’; Nilotes can also call each other ‘cousin’. Let each cousin vote for their cousin, but don’t complain when your cousin and their cousin do a handshake in 2028. Don’t complain about unemployment, corruption, or overtaxation. You and your cousin are a product of your decision. Goodnight, Cuzo,” Morara wrote on X.
Early this month, Morara reignited discussions on the pervasive corruption and systemic issues plaguing Kenyan politics.
Morara, in a video rant against the country’s political elite shared via his official social media accounts on the night of Monday, June 2, 2025, challenges the narrative that the country’s problems are confined to individual leaders like President William Ruto or former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, instead pointing to a broader war against entrenched exploitation and graft.
In the 17-minute video shared on X, Morara argues that the real conflict in Kenya is not merely between political figures but against a system that perpetuates corruption and inequality.
“Most Kenyans don’t know that we are fighting a very big war. This war is very big; people think that it is very small,” Morara states at the beginning of his video.
