Ruto Urges Voter Registration in North While Labeling Opposition Ineffective

President William Ruto has urged increased voter registration in northern Kenya while strongly criticizing the opposition, labeling them as ineffective and driven by hatred. At the same time, President Ruto is reportedly employing a strategy to weaken the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party by exploiting internal divisions. Separately, Safina Party leader Jimi Wanjigi criticized Nyanza leaders for aligning with what he described as a punitive government during the launch of the party's new office in Siaya town. Meanwhile, Kadu Asili is rebranding and has appointed former KNUT chairman Mr Mudzo Nzili as its new party leader, aiming to become a significant political force in the Coast region and across Kenya.
