President William Ruto has told the Azimo coalition that he will beat their candidate in the 2027 general elections.

While addressing Vihiga residents during a development tour, Ruto hit out at the Raila Odinga-led outfit for their anti-government protests against his regime.

"The people already went to the polls and chose their preferred leaders and if they still feel they want to try their luck, 2027 is there, let them come we will beat them again," said Ruto.

Ruto also criticized Azimio over their opposition to the Finance Act 2023 which he said will help solve unemployment in the country.

He said that they should not push for the Act to be repealed.

He said the protests that have been called for by the opposition will not solve any problem or put food on the table for Kenyans.

The Azimio coalition has been holding protests in different parts of the country against Ruto's regime demanding that he lowers the cost of living.
