Ruto Explains Demand for Kenyan Labor in Foreign Countries

Ruto Explains Demand for Kenyan Labor in Foreign Countries

During a Thanksgiving mass held at Cardinal Otunga Mosocho High School in Kisii County, President William Ruto reaffirmed his belief in the economic benefits of sending Kenyan workers abroad.

According to President Ruto, his international travels have yielded excellent results with many Kenyans finding work beyond their home country. He praises the outstanding status of Kenyan professionals, citing their commendable work ethic and unmatched abilities. Ruto has announced that over the next one and a half months, more than 10,000 Kenyans will have the chance to travel overseas for employment.

"I do not travel as a tourist, I travel to seek job opportunities for Kenyans and investments. Soon you will see the results. Kenyans are widely known for their wonderful work in the whole world that is why many countries would love to work with Kenyans in their companies." Said Ruto.

President Ruto has launched a new initiative to stabilize the nation's economy and thwart fluctuations in the exchange rate. To this end, the Head of State has pledged to establish labour agreements with several countries, to send a million Kenyans abroad to work and alleviate economic concerns through the remittance of dollars. The President advocates a comprehensive strategy to reduce the high cost of living by supporting farmers to boost food production.

Ruto conveys the government's ambitions of providing its citizens with better financial opportunities. To achieve this, he emphasizes the need to manage public funds, minimize government spending and maximise efficiency. Additionally, the President lauds the endeavours being undertaken to introduce Universal Health Coverage to counter excessive expenses on medical treatments. Ruto assures that no region will be neglected in terms of development due to political disparities, further emphasizing increased funding for the education sector to promote equal opportunities for all Kenyans.

This man 🧍‍♂️is the biggest liar of all times! Who really wants to hire unskilled labor except the Saudis for domestic chores, etc? Ruto maybe colluding with Arabs to start a new age wave of slave trading.

The Bible says they had eyes and they didn't see. They had ears and they didn't hear. But they had mouths and they talked too much. Led by Ruto.

Too much lies from this slick Willy’s mouth! Ruto got a mouthiasis problem and no veterinary in Kenya wants to treat this sick cow! I have never known a guy that lies like Ruto. Even he’ll have run out of record keeping space for Ruto’s lies!

Less taxation leads to:

1. More private businesses creations
2. Endless job opportunities
3. Endless taxes revenues for the government

Excessive taxation leads to:

1. Less private businesses enterprises
2. Less job opportunities
3. Less revenue for the government.
4. Nepotism, corruption, unemployed masses, insecurity, state of hopelessness among the youth, more crimes committed by the desperate people, more time spent in useless praying (superstition ) and worshipping foreign lying gods.

The above (less taxation) formula has created endless job opportunities in the USA.

We have failed to create jobs at home for our people. We are begging western and Arab countries to use our youth to develop their own countries. About 75% of Kenya's population is 34 yrs. That is a powerful resources to gift abroad. What about breaking up the families at home? What type of work are they going to do? What about the racism that the African faces in most parts of the world today? During Covid-19 pandemic, Kenyans in China were among the Africans who were chased away from their apartments and thrown into the streets, accused of spreading the disease. Same disease that originated from China. The authentic Africans in the diaspora are the descendants of slaves, forcefully taken into slavery from Africa more than 400 years ago. Just like the Kenyans your are taking to the same countries, they too had been taken to provide labor. We have become a country that lucks self respect and discipline. We buy everything from other countries: from tooth picks, mitumba to furniture and Range Rovers. A lot of what we import can be manufactured
at home. But we lack vision. We are sending our innocent youths to bring us dollars. Soon we will create a diasporian tax to get the dollars from our newly created slaves. What a shame?

The exportation of “domestic house slaves,” and security guards especially in the Middle Eastern countries is the resurrection of 21st Century Modern Slavery.
Solution
Minimize the current illogical taxation and endless opportunities will be created by the less taxed and creative Kenyans.

Colorism and sexism are still alive among the former slave-buying and selling countries of the world. It’s a crime against humanity to export your citizens to work in menial-dead-end jobs in an hostile foreign country.

This is so embarrassing, ridiculous and mind boggling. An elected leader wanting to send able bodied workers to foreign lands and sees this as an “achievement”. This dude and his deputy are so freaking embarrassing.

The above comments are from Kenyans in diaspora are economic refugees abroad who relocated before UhuruRuto and the new constitution.It is better to understand that nothing will change in Kenya with the current katiba in place.Every tax penny goes to fund the bloated government and the excess is looted.

It's time for Kenyans to wake up.
There other ways of reducing the future debt.
How about:
1. No more importation of anything that can be made locally.
2. How about allowing only the machineries that we cannot make.
3. How about training our youth, people who have ccompleted universities and have no jobs to create our own books for standard one through 7th or eighth grade. After 60 years of independence, are you telling us we are not qualified to educate our own kids. If this is so, we must start questioning the type of education the government has prescribed.
44.We can train youths to make school uniforms, they do not have to be perfect, they just need to be made locally- every village should make its own uniforms.
5. No one should get a license to do what our people can do.

The jobs are available in Kenya if only you as a President are willing to look from within and not without.
Do some research about the Africans who were taken to those countries as slaves 400 years ago.
The pain, suffering,lynchings that have taken place over the centuries.
For our hospitals, we can train our youth to take care of the basic stuff.
If we used what we have and control the appetite of anything foreign our country will grow and be peaceful.
For our courts, we need to hire translators and not jail people just because they could not defend themselves with their God given language. we need local translators in our courts from every community in Kenya.
You just need a little re- organization to stabilize the country not selling slaves. Slavery has been outlawed.
In America, emancipation proclamation was done on January 1st, 1864 to release slaves.
We cannot be implementing a policy of selling slaves in foreign countries in the year 2023.
We should be working to make sure our youths do not become future slaves in foreign countries.

Waafrika tulirogwa jameni. Begging for unga from war torn Ukraine thousands of miles away. Africa can provide everything for itself if they want to. Water, massive land, sun, minerals, oil, and human resources..

Stop lying to the youth about numerous job opportunities abroad.Also not all those who go abroad send money back home so that dream that the youth will save the economy is just a myth.Your hustler government needs to be sent packing you go abroad to shop the latest brands wearing red bottom shoes on a public national holiday when freedom fighters are dying landless and their descendants wallow in poverty 60 years since independence

Wow, wow, wow, this is quite powerful stuff! It is only Ruto who is living large in today’s Kenya! He needs to be sent packing because he has failed the country but he is still delusional about a mirage future ahead!

Ruto is totally lost in the wilderness, he has no plan how to get out of the wilderness and now he is just talking like a mad man because he is confused and lost.

Ruto should explain to the youths WHY," the over supply of unemployed "in Kenya. He should be creating jobs for them in the country.They want to travel as tourists ,and enjoy just like others who visit Kenya.The motto should be TOUR ABROAD,WORK HOME.
