“My fellow Kenyans, the United Opposition will never be broken. We remain strong and resolute. Kenyans cannot be betrayed through disunity, especially now, when they need us most,” he stated.
Kalonzo on Ruto’s leadership
In addition, the former vice president criticised President William Ruto’s claim that his economic model works, and questioned who it was working for.
He argues that millions of Kenyans cannot afford a meal, and public universities are collapsing. Students’ dignity has been reduced to misery.

“I have heard President Ruto say that his economic model works. But I ask, working for whom? Millions of Kenyans cannot afford a meal on the table. Our public universities are collapsing, and the dignity of being a student in this country has been reduced to misery,” he said.
Education
Additionally, Kalonzo noted that education is a constitutional right, but expressed pity at seeing President Ruto and his allies celebrate Katiba Day, noting that Ruto had opposed the constitution himself.
“Education is a constitutional right. However, seeing Ruto and his newfound allies celebrating Katiba Day, I felt pity because he himself opposed this constitution,” he added.
“Kenyans, let us be clear: a constitution without constitutionalism is meaningless because the Bill of Rights affirms the dignity and freedoms of our people, which is why we firmly oppose political intolerance.”
