“Very Bad”: George Ruto Reacts to Bayern Munich vs Ajax Clash in Kenya

George Ruto, the son of President William Ruto, has reacted to the announcement that European football giants Bayern Munich and Ajax Amsterdam will face each other in Nairobi, using two words that quickly caught attention.

George shared a poster advertising the upcoming fixture and captioned it “Very bad” on Thursday, October 29, 2026. His brief response came a day after President Ruto announced that the two clubs would play at the newly constructed Raila Odinga International Stadium in Nairobi.

The match is scheduled for January 5, 2027, and will officially open the 60,000-seat stadium at Talanta Sports City.

The announcement has generated considerable interest among Kenyan football fans, many of whom are looking forward to seeing two well-known European clubs play on Kenyan soil.

Bayern Munich, based in Germany, are among the most successful clubs in European football. They have won the UEFA Champions League six times and boast a history of producing and attracting some of the world’s leading players.

Ajax Amsterdam, meanwhile, are among the Netherlands’ most successful football clubs. The Dutch side have won Europe’s top club competition four times and are widely recognised for developing young football talent.

Their meeting in Nairobi is expected to be a major occasion for local supporters, who will have an opportunity to watch the two teams without travelling to Europe.

President Ruto announced the fixture on Wednesday, October 28, 2026, describing it as a historic match that would mark the opening of the new national stadium.

The President also linked the event to the country’s preparations for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), which Kenya will co-host with Uganda and Tanzania.

The continental tournament is scheduled to take place from June 19 to July 17, 2027. The new stadium is expected to play an important role in Kenya’s preparations for the competition.

The facility, which has a seating capacity of 60,000, is among the country’s major sports infrastructure projects. Its opening with an international football fixture is expected to attract attention from supporters across East Africa.

Meanwhile, the announcement has sparked conversations among Kenyans on social media, with football fans discussing the visiting clubs and the opportunity to watch international football locally.

George’s short reaction added another talking point to the announcement, although he did not provide further details explaining his choice of words.
