Former President Uhuru Kenyatta has indirectly criticized William Ruto, his successor, by drawing attention to the fact that Ruto regularly places the responsibility for his own failings on both himself and the previous administration. Uhuru has said that the Kenya Kwanza leaders’ limited focus on the past has little influence on a country’s progress, and he has challenged the current leadership to set aside their obsession with the past and embrace the future.
He shared his personal leadership lessons and compared driving to governance as a way to caution about leaders living their lives in the rearview mirror. According to him, a leader should be facing forward with both hands securely grasping the steering wheel. This type of vision, in his opinion, acts as a country’s compass when overcoming challenges.
In a diplomatic move, Uhuru sent his best wishes and counseled the current leaders to focus on fixing present issues rather than dwelling on the past. “Kenya is home.” “If you are a leader, you have been given a steering wheel to drive, whether it be in Nyandarua County, this constituency, Kenya, or anywhere else,” he said in Kipipiri, Nyandarua County. We extend our warmest wishes to everyone in attendance. “A good leader holds the steering wheel and looks ahead, not every time looking at the rearview mirror to see where they have come from,” Uhuru is reported to have stated by The Star.
In response to the practice of placing blame, he stated that making excuses from the past is ineffectual. He even joked that Ruto and his gang were blaming him for the infertility in the family.” They always blame the previous administration when someone doesn’t carry out their responsibilities. We will be held accountable under this pattern even if a wife choose not to have children, but we are used to this,” Uhuru said.
