Lands Cabinet Secretary Alice Wahome has challenged Kenyans in the public service to follow the example set by President William Ruto, praising his dedication and tireless work ethic.
Speaking on Sunday, November 9, 2025, in Maralal, while accompanying the President to a church function, Wahome highlighted Ruto’s hands-on approach as a model for all public servants.
“Our president is a worker. If we could adopt the culture of our president and work with dedication in our respective stations, then Kenya will be in a good place, especially those of us in the public spaces,” she said.
CS Wahome stressed that the country would thrive if leaders and civil servants embraced a similar commitment to service.
The Cabinet Secretary also used the occasion to rally support for Ruto’s reelection, emphasizing the need for continuity in ongoing development projects initiated under the Kenya Kwanza administration.
“We need to continue the many projects started, and it is why we want the president to go beyond his first term. Or are you not for the two terms? Some of these projects require consistency and a person with the desire to work and with a plan,” she added.
Wahome’s remarks echo President Ruto’s earlier comments in October 2025, where he blamed Kenya’s slow economic progress on retrogressive leadership. Speaking on Saturday, October 4, 2025, the President lamented that inadequate leadership had prevented the nation from achieving its economic potential.
“It is us leaders who have failed this country. Kenya should not be a third-world country. We are fairly responsible for where Kenya is today, and we cannot continue that way. We have been talking a lot and getting nothing done,” Ruto said.
“I have committed to changing course. We cannot go on talking with no action and getting nothing done,” he added.
