Ruto Buys Artistic State House Model From Githurai Artists
During a rally in Githurai Market in Kiambu County on Saturday, August 5, President William Ruto was interrupted by a resident displaying a sculpture of the State House.
The artist received cheers from residents as the President instructed his entourage to purchase the sculpture. Ruto expressed gratitude to the locals for their votes and vowed to speed up Kiambu County's developmental projects, a vision that includes establishing ICT hubs in every constituency to enable young people to access digital jobs. As part of his Bottom-Up Economic Model, Ruto pledged to construct 15 ultramodern markets in the county and 400 nationwide following the prosperous initiation of the Githurai Market.
The Head of State instructed Kiambu Governor Kimani Wamatangi to make necessary arrangements to provide traders with a favourable and clean working environment. Additionally, he directed Housing Principal Secretary Charles Hinga to develop and submit phase two's market plan which will be introduced in the next year. The President castigated the opposition party for orchestrating countrywide protests against his government.
"I want to tell the opposition we will not allow anyone to cause chaos in the country. The threats from the opposition to acquire a part in government will not happen. I will be tough on them," Ruto warned.
Meanwhile, Ruto's team has rejected a proposal to hold talks at the five-star Serena Hotel citing the high cost involved. They suggest that the inaugural meeting by the two teams be held on Thursday instead of Monday as earlier proposed by the Azimio La Umoja One Kenya Coalition. Furthermore, the Kenya Kwanza Alliance team leader and National Assembly Majority Leader Kimani Ichung’wah has stated that his team will not engage in matters outside of the existing law, or ones that undermine any branch of government. As a result, the ruling party has rejected talks on the cost of living, the audit of the 2022 presidential election results, and interference with political parties.

We need a sustained cost saving plan.Afew days of avoiding a 5 star Hotel wont cut it.I could also argue that,they should promote the"ecomony" of the 5 star in question,Ofcourse I am hoping that the 5 star in question would use this windfall profit to benefit its staff,from the floor cleaner to the accountant.
I suggest that while in this conscious spirit of not wasting public funds, all Mpig's salaries should be slashed by 10%. Now,that's how you cut cost.
