Farouk Kibet, a close aide to President William Ruto, has issued a strong warning to individuals allegedly funding violent demonstrations across the country, insisting that any attempts to destabilize the Kenya Kwanza administration will ultimately fail.
Speaking during a women’s empowerment forum held in Taita Taveta County on Thursday, Farouk took a firm stance against what he described as deliberate efforts to fuel unrest for political or personal gain. He emphasized that those using their financial resources to sponsor chaos and division were wasting their time and risking the peace and stability of the nation.
“Those spending money to incite and organize violent protests will not succeed in undermining this government,” he stated. “Instead of channeling their wealth into destructive causes, they should invest in uplifting women and empowering communities economically.”
Farouk went on to underline the Kenya Kwanza administration’s resolve to maintain peace and focus on development, asserting that no form of violence or political noise would distract the government from its mission to serve all Kenyans equally. He reiterated that the leadership under President Ruto is firmly rooted in the principles of inclusivity and national cohesion.
“We are not going to allow violence or political distractions to shake this government,” Farouk declared. “We are committed to serving every Kenyan, regardless of their ethnic background or region of origin. Ours is a government of unity, not division.”
He further reassured residents that under President Ruto’s leadership, no region or community would be left behind. Farouk stressed that tribalism would no longer define Kenya’s political landscape, noting that the government is determined to promote a culture of nationhood, equality, and shared progress.
“We are one Kenya,” he said. “Tribalism has no place in the future of this country. Today, you can see national leaders from across the country gathered here. That in itself is a message that we are united and focused on driving development and prosperity for all.”
Farouk’s remarks come amid rising political tensions and protests in parts of the country, with sections of the opposition accusing the government of failing to address key public concerns. His statements echo the administration’s call for peace, dialogue, and national unity as a foundation for economic growth and social harmony.
