Eldai Member of Parliament Maryanne Keitany on Wednesday, May 17 stated that President William Ruto is the savior Kenya needs in the fight against corruption. 

Keitany who made her remarks during an interview with the K24 noted that a scandal has happened in President Ruto’s administration, and he has acted immediately as opposed to waiting for the media to call him out.

“Ruto is leading from the front. And that is why I have said unlike all other previous regimes, I think this is the savior for our country because he has decided to lead from the front, act, and actually show that he is not going to condone any form of corruption,” Keitany stated.

She recalled the president’s statement before making changes in the Health Ministry after the KEMSA scandal that his actions will speak louder than words when it comes to corruption cases.

“And that is what we are seeing, he has not spoken but he has acted. He has said let everybody take responsibility for their actions,” she added. 

According to the Eldai MP, the move by the president has sent a clear message to the rest of the government that he will not excuse corruption in his administration.

MP Keitany’s remarks comes after the head of state on Monday, May 15 suspended KEMSA CEO Terry Ramadhani and dismissed Health Principal Secretary Josephine Mburu.  

Moreover, as a result of that, the entire KEMSA board was also disbanded.
