The church has told President William Ruto to listen to the cries of Kenyans who are facing hard economic times worsened by the effects of drought for a long time.

The clergy, under the National Council of Churches of Kenya (NCCK) and Kenya Conference of Catholic Bishops (KCCB), said many families are sleeping hungry, businesses have collapsed, and people have lost jobs even as the cost of living continues to rise.
