“Yes, RUTO has failed but is ready to change for the better!” – MUDAVADI now admits as he urges Gen Zs to give the president another chance.

 Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi has addressed the volatile situation in Kenya caused by the Gen Z revolution.

Speaking at the launch of the Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) Curriculum Development, Assessment and Certification Council’s Strategic Plan 2023-27 in Nairobi, Mudavadi acknowledged President William Ruto’s missteps that led to the protests by the young people across the country.

However, he urged for restraint from the younger generation to prevent further turmoil.

He said the President has heard the Gen Zs and is ready to change for the better if given another chance.

Mudavadi pleaded with young Kenyans to adopt a forward-looking approach in their demonstrations.

“We have a country to protect. We have made mistakes along the way. And don’t be cheated, we will also make mistakes as we go forward,” Mudavadi stated emphatically. 

He added, “For as long as you are a human being, once in a while you will stumble.”

Drawing comparisons between Ruto’s administration and previous regimes, Mudavadi noted, “Our forefathers were there. They did what they did. 

“You cannot say they did not make mistakes. They did. But they held on to the country.”

“We are here today; we shall make our mistakes all of us. 

“But the country must not go down with our mistakes. 

“Because there will be another generation to come and take over,” he stated.

Mudavadi cautioned, “If you are in your 18s or 20s and your country is thrown into turmoil tell me where you will be.”

Despite some concessions from Ruto, who has tried to placate the demonstrators with various measures, the unrest persists.

The Gen Zs have remained steadfast in their demands for Ruto’s resignation, planning new rallies under the hashtag “RutoMustGo.”
