“Facts Will Not Change”: William Ruto Dismisses Notion that He Lies All the Time
President William Ruto has denied claims by a section of Kenyans that he rarely says the truth.
What question did Linus Kaikai ask William Ruto?
During a roundtable interview on Sunday, June 30, journalists reminded the president that most Kenyans do not believe in what he says.
“There are Kenyans who watch you and I don’t know whether you are aware that they don’t trust and believe in what you say. Are you aware that a lot of Kenyans increasingly don’t associate the truth with you?” Linus Kaikai of Citizen TV posed
Eric Latif of KTN News had a similar question, adding that Kenyans wanted him to ask Ruto when he would stop lying.

“Before we came here, we asked people what questions we should ask you, and one thing that came out was, “When will he stop lying?” Latif posed.
However, in his response, the president stood firm with his public statements, saying he has never lied to Kenyans.
What William Ruto said about telling the truth
According to Ruto, whatever he had promised Kenyans, including the cheap fertilizer, came to pass.
The head of state argued that those who claimed he was a liar had never associated the truth with him.
“That is your assessment because you have never associated the truth with me from the beginning.
“I told the people of Kenya that I would reduce the price of fertilizer from KSh 7000 to KSh 2500, I don’t know how that is a lie because they buy it at KSh 2500….Whether you believe me or not, facts will not change. Facts are not changed by who says it,” Ruto said.
