President William Ruto claims that the unga cost won't decrease if the opposition keeps protesting.

Ruto contends that financial support for farmers will lower living expenses and significantly improve Kenya's food supply.

"Wale wanashindana na sisi wanasema ati njia ya kubadilisha bei ya chakula ni kufanya maandamano na kuvaa sufuria kwa kichwa. Hata kwa uganga ama uchawi, ama hata dawa itabadilika namna gani?" he said.

He spoke during Taita Taveta's Sunday interfaith services.

He claims that farmers need quick access to stores that sell cheap fertilizer near their homes.


Ruto has frequently maintained that the benefits of protests for Kenyans were nonexistent.

Ruto said on Saturday in Vihiga that Kenyans should cultivate the soil in their farms rather than protest.

"If someone wants to demonstrate, they should do it on their farms. That is the only way to solve unga problem," he said.

The President claims that criticizing the administration won't help put food on the table.

He suggested that now that the elections were over, leaders should focus on developing the country.
