Kenyans engaging in the 'Ruto Must Go' chants, exercises, or regime change attempts have been warned to ensure that they do so through constitutional means.
Speaking at the National Intelligence and Research University in Nairobi during a public lecture by National Intelligence Service (NIS) boss Noordin Haji, Chief Defence Forces (CDF) General Charles Kahariri stated that any attempts to transfer power must be made through acceptable means, lest Kenyans risk destroying the country. "We cannot exercise anarchy, and even as people exercise their rights, it should be within their bounds, within their rights, such that we cannot allow ourselves to exercise our rights to the extent of tearing apart the country," Kahariri stated. "We, as the military, defend the constitution and the government of the day, duly elected by the people.
So when you decide that you are tired of the government you elected and then you start chanting 'Must Go', 'Must Go', that 'Must Go' must be done according to the constitution," Kahariri warned.
