Jimi Wanjigi’s Furious Attack on Ruto as ODM Defectors Join Him
Businessman and politician Jimi Wanjigi has once again hit out at President William Ruto in a fiery speech that drew strong reactions from the political scene.
The outspoken Safina Party leader used harsh words, openly lecturing the head of state in a manner that many described as treating him “like a child.” This happened as a group of ODM defectors was being received, an event that Wanjigi used to send a loud political message.
In his remarks, Wanjigi accused Ruto of hypocrisy, claiming that the president was among the key figures who pushed Kenya into the current debt crisis during the Jubilee administration.
He argued that Ruto cannot pretend to be innocent or position himself as a savior while he was part of the leadership that piled up unsustainable loans.
His voice rose in anger as he declared, “Bure kabisa, ashindwe!” a phrase that symbolized both frustration and defiance.
Wanjigi’s tone was confrontational, framing Ruto as a leader who had failed to deliver on promises of economic relief.
He pointed to the high cost of living and public suffering as signs of betrayal. According to Wanjigi, the government is running out of excuses, and Kenyans are no longer willing to accept empty assurances.
The timing of his outburst was also significant. ODM defections have recently been a point of contention, with some members shifting allegiance for political survival.
Wanjigi’s decision to lash out at Ruto while welcoming ODM defectors suggested that he was not only criticizing the government but also trying to present himself as a stronger alternative force.
This is not the first time Wanjigi has clashed with the regime. In the past, he accused the state of targeting him politically and even warned that there were efforts to “eliminate” him.
His latest outburst reinforces his image as one of Ruto’s loudest critics, determined to challenge the administration on governance, debt management, and economic performance.
While his words drew applause from supporters, critics argue that Wanjigi himself has questions to answer about his role in past political dealings.
Still, his speech has kept him firmly in the headlines, reminding the political establishment that he is not backing down any time soon.
