President William Samoei Ruto’s official visit to china after being invited by his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping ended this week after he jetted back on Wednesday.
During the visit,it was hoped that he will secure funding for the construction of standard gauge railway whereby Nairobi seeks to extend the current line to Uganda.
It has however been revealed that president William Ruto failed to secure funding because of two reasons.
According to the east African, President Ruto was failed by his peers who weren’t ready to sign the coast-to-coast Rail project.
Secondly, president Xi Jinping saw Ethiopian president Abiy more credit-worthy than president William Ruto and that is why he gave him more attention.
Some kenyans who reacted online however blamed all this to president William Ruto’s closeness with the US.
below are the screenshots of the reactions online.
Apophis:It was expected no surprises here in fact i would have been shocked if they accepted why would the chinese build infrastructure for Americas 51st state.
Bawoga:Let him be told USA is an enemy of the Eastern Europe and the east people have good relationship with Africans so hapo tunasema Nguruwe hujikaanga na mafuta yake (moi was once said).
Kiome:We have been telling our heavenly chosen one that kiherehere haisaidii. He is treating Our foreign policy with utmost contempt. Siding with oppressors right from day one. The chickens are fast coming home to roost.
Ngori: He went solo to China singing the gospel of pushing the SGR to DRC..when the said countries president could have also joined him,,maybe he is spokesman for east Africa community
