Ruto Accuses Opposition of Extorting Dangote Over Sh2 Trillion Lamu Refinery

President William Ruto has accused opposition leaders of attempting to extort Nigerian businessman Aliko Dangote over his Sh2 trillion refinery investment in Lamu, promising to protect investors. This accusation comes as Ruto intensifies his criticism of political opponents during his development tour of the Coast region. At the same time, Ruto has renewed attacks on former President Uhuru Kenyatta, accusing him of neglecting the economic welfare of Taita Taveta County residents. He has also targeted Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna with renewed criticism. The President has displayed close ties to businessman Wicknell Chivayo, who recently passed away in a helicopter crash in Zimbabwe, with their final encounters drawing attention to their relationship.
