President William Ruto has come out strongly in defence of his decision to invite what he called ordinary people to State House.
The president said he is also an ordinary Kenyan who has worked his way up through God’s grace.
Speaking on Thursday, July 10, 2025, during a meeting with Nairobi United FC at State House, Ruto fired back at critics who are accusing him of lowering the dignity of the presidency by welcoming common citizens into the country’s most prestigious facility.
