Governance expert Fred Ogola has sharply criticised President William Ruto’s leadership style, warning that growing public dissatisfaction could lead to a ballot revolution in the 2027 general elections.
His remarks come amid rising political tensions and accusations of shrinking democratic space in Kenya.
As the 2027 polls inch closer, Ogola reflected on the growing narrative that the next election will be a referendum on President Ruto’s governance style, one marked by calls for accountability, democratic space, and a shift from populist rhetoric to meaningful reform.
