Thirdway Alliance party leader Ekuru Aukot accuses President William Ruto of dishonesty in claiming to seek jobs abroad for Kenyans. Aukot argues that Ruto's focus on promoting the climate agenda abroad, particularly in the US, UK, and the EU, is detrimental to Kenya's industrialization. He asserts that successful nations like China and much of Asia achieved prosperity by creating domestic industries that provided jobs for their youth.

Aukot emphasizes the need for Kenya to prioritize creating opportunities for its youth instead of relying on seeking menial jobs abroad. He criticizes the current economic situation, describing it as tragic, and warns against excessive borrowing from the International Monetary Fund (IMF), stating that it would burden future generations.

These comments from Aukot follow President Ruto's recent announcement of the country's intention to send a significant number of Kenyans to work internationally each week. Ruto highlighted the potential benefits, including remittances and self-reliance, emphasizing the positive impact on the country's development.
