William Ruto's hustler agenda scores high in context but weak on strategic interventions

Today, I once again assume that unenviable position of dissecting the hustler’s agenda for the nation. This is if the people choose to bequeath them the reins of power on election night of August 9. About three week ago, we did the same for Azimio la Umoja formation. I choose to exercise my liberties to skip the ones for the Roots and Agano parties.

For the avoidance of doubt, I have had time to go through the document word by word. Here, I only share deep reflections on the sum total of what has been said therein, either directly or implied. For clarity, we shall group the central issues around three themes: the generics, the good and the vague.
