How desperate can people be? Let our children be. Let our children learn. Those children are Kenyans, regardless of where they come from, and the communities they come from, they are children of Kenya,” Ruto said in a response to the remarks made four days ago.In a scathing attack against the Kenya Kwanza's management ofgrade 10 transition, Gachagua faulted the government over what he called a confused and unfair placement system to senior schools.Gachagua, in his remarks, accused Ruto’s administration of humiliating children from the central region by not admitting them to senior national schools such as Mang’u and Alliance.But Ruto said his administration managed the Competency-Based Education, leading to a seamless transition.Ruto told the united opposition tostop dividing Kenyansalong tribal lines and discuss agendas ahead of the 2027 general election.“If a leader has no agenda, he will start selling tribalism.
