President Ruto should visit local joints to see how Kenyans are doing

When Baba Charlene was on the campaign trail last year, he would pop in into nondescript kibandaskis and relish chapos, sitting on rustic wooden forms. In the same spirit, this festive season, he should visit Kenyans and see how they are doing, with several new taxes he has introduced.

One Saturday evening, Baba Charlene should don his modish black Stetson and drop down into our weekend haunt. Most likely, he will hail us 'Mwathani agoocwo' (praise the Lord) his trademark salaams when he is in the mountain region. No one will answer him, not because we are rude, but because most of the fellows there were last in church when Moi was president. The other lot has no reason to praise the Lord.
