According to excerpts published by Citizen TV, Walubengo argued that the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) administration had failed to adequately listen to public feedback.

“The UDA government doesn’t listen; they don’t take feedback,” he said, adding that repeated campaign promises about roads and water were no longer sufficient to address the expectations of Kenyans.

He also questioned President Ruto’s engagement with young people through social media platform X, suggesting that the initiative was driven by political pressure rather than genuine interest in their concerns.

Walubengo further criticised the government’s approach to youth empowerment, arguing that encouraging young people to become bloggers or participate in street-cleaning initiatives did not sufficiently address the needs of graduates holding university degrees and postgraduate qualifications.

He also raised concerns about human rights and accountability, referring to the death of Albert Ojwang and allegations of abductions involving activists, lawyers and media personnel. His comments formed part of his criticism of the administration’s democratic record.

Walubengo, who was unveiled as Secretary General of Ndindi Nyoro’s People’s Party on September 22, 2026, was described by Nyoro as an intelligent and articulate 24-year-old. The Star reported that he was the youngest among the party’s first designated officials.

During the same programme, ODM youth leader Florence Ayoo defended President Ruto, describing him as a hardworking leader focused on delivering development projects.

Walubengo’s remarks add to the growing political debate over government accountability, youth empowerment and public participation ahead of Kenya’s 2027 General Election.https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1Ej1rdXYuV/
