Today is Day 777 since President William Ruto was inaugurated into office, and 812 days since the August 2022 election. There are 1,015 days to the next election on August 10, 2027.
Then, as our latest distraction, we have a Senator proposing to add another 730 days to this administration’s term. Remember, it’s also 733 days since our first batch of Cabinet Secretaries were sworn in, and 110 days since most of them were fired. The new lot, including many of the old lot, have been in office for 82 days. For the record, it’s 126 days since Gen Z stormed Parliament.
It is telling that my favourite Sunday Standard highlighted 774 days as Ruto’s rollercoaster. Because, despite their ostensible cleverness, these people are all over the place.
