Prezzo Bill Ruto new leitmotif, other than the aforementioned "akili" business, is that he wants to make Kenya leap from a so-called "Third World" to "First-World" economy. It's true a man who does not understand a language is likely to betray his ignorance.
What Prezzo Ruto is rehashing is racist tosh, but he wouldn't know that because he was busy selling chickens in Sugoi when that discourse was taking shape. Africa is first world, because its resources were plundered through slavery and colonialism to prop and subsidise life in so-called First World. And foolish Africans are busy looting their nations and hiding loot in the so-called "First world" countries.
