Jubilee party Secretary General Jeremiah Kioni cautioned President William Ruto against negative criticism of the United States during his 4-day state visit to China.

Kioni, who spoke during a presser on Thursday afternoon, said Ruto's criticism of President Donald Trump's administration could pose serious repercussions for Kenya.

He also warned the Head of State against castigating the multilateral lenders, including the International Monetary Fund (IMF), terming it ironical since a Kenyan delegation led by Treasury Cabinet Secretary John Mbadi was in America to meet the Fund officials. "He needs to be very coherent with the foreign policy, do not go to China and begin criticising the Americans, yet there is a Kenyan delegation in the US," Kioni warned.
