President William Ruto stood before a nation in pain.
A nation mourning the lives of its children gunned down in cold blood, a nation clamoring not for charity but for dignity.
And in that pivotal moment when leadership demanded restraint, compassion, and unity, the President chose threat and intimidation.
He told the police to "just shoot on the leg." A command so reckless, so dismissive of human life, that it will be remembered not as a slip of the tongue but as a stain on the soul of this Republic.
