“Huyo ni mtu wa mkono kama Nyinyi!” Netizens react to DP William Ruto’s meeting with local artists (Photos)

Truth is we all want Kenya to be unlocked especially now that hunger seems to be killing most Kenyans than Covid-19 is.

Of course this meeting was to show that despite the hard times we are facing; there is still hope as the Vice President took off sometime to sit; and talk with these celebrities despite his busy schedule.

The rest of Kenyans i.e mama mboga, waitresses; and others got to learn about the meeting later on thanks to photos shared by the likes of Jalang’o, Khaligraph Jones and others. For some reason, turns out that most Kenyans felt that this was more of a comedy show – rather than a light at the end of the tunnel.
