Ruto's dislike of history to blame for his government's current woes

On January 25, 2011, Egyptians tired of poverty and corruption in government took to the streets, Twitter (X), Facebook and YouTube to express their dissatisfaction with President Hosni Mubarak. They laid siege on the government through demos and 18 days later, Mubarak resigned.

A week earlier, a spontaneous uprising in Tunisia had culminated in the ouster of President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali and birthed the Arab Spring. Science and innovation were used to beat dictatorial regimes at their own game. The same science and innovation are being applied against Dr Ruto.
