That's the point. Lawyer Omar revealed that Ruto's regime has collected in just two and a half years 10 times what Kibaki's regime collected in 10 years and 20 times what Uhuru collected for 10 years. The big question is where is Ruto taking this money to when there is no improvement in the lives of common mwananchi? In less than one term, Ruto has made so many trips outside the country than what Kibaki and Uhuru did in there entire presidency. Can Ruto tell Kenyans why this mess?

Ruto has been forcefully overtaxing us to fund his expensive travels and to wear his luxurious watches and fashion.
