Benny Hinn Walubengo did not mince his words on JKLive, delivering a blunt assessment of why he believes President William Ruto has become unpopular. He accused the government of promising Kenyans a better life but leaving many feeling betrayed.
“He sold heaven and gave people hell,” Walubengo said, adding that even hell was an understatement. His remarks gave the discussion a dramatic edge as he questioned whether the administration understood ordinary citizens’ anger.
Walubengo also accused the UDA government of failing to listen to public feedback. In his view, leaders cannot keep making promises while ignoring the concerns of the people they govern.
He argued that old campaign messages about building roads and providing water are no longer enough to convince voters. Such promises, he suggested, have been repeated for decades, and Kenyans now expect leaders to address more urgent concerns.
His most emotional point came when he questioned the value of building roads while people are losing their lives. “You cannot kill people and build roads for them,” he said, asking what use those roads would be to citizens who are dead.
The comments have added another voice to the debate about governance, accountability and the priorities of the UDA administration. They also underline the pressure facing leaders as citizens demand more than development announcements and campaign speeches.
The incident sparked reactions online, with supporters appearing divided over whether Walubengo’s criticism was fair or too harsh. Many people were left talking about the contrast between campaign promises and the realities they say they face.
What do you think: has the government failed to listen to Kenyans, or is Walubengo being too harsh? Share your views in the comments.
