Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has warned President Ruto to stop using abusive and vulgar language when addressing Kenyans.
Gachagua said Ruto was displaying too much anger and that his vulgar language was badly demeaning himself and the presidency.
He said Ruto’s continued use of abusive language had lowered his standard very low and Kenyans are now shocked and have lost respect to him.
Gachagua warned Ruto that Kenyans will soon start abusing him back unless he stops insulting them and to respect his office.
Speaking at Salama Ward in Laikipia West Sub-county, Laikipia County, the former DP criticised Ruto’s recent remarks saying that he is demeaning the presidency by talking casually when addressing Kenyans during his political tours across the country.
Gachagua noted that the presidency is a symbol of National Unity something that President Ruto has not been able to uphold.
While giving instances where president Ruto has lowered the dignity of the presidency, the former DP has said that Ruto has been profiling Kenyans while using condescending language towards a section of Kenyans.
Gachagua cautioned the president to either stop the usage of demeaning language or else Kenyans will start replying back using the same language.
The former DP has added that he is sympathising with President Ruto for the heat after messing up the economy and hence being deserted by Kenyans.
On the region’s political direction, the former DP has said that the region has already moved on away from President Ruto and will chart a fresh political path.
