Ruto orders crackdown on goons behind unrest

President William Ruto has directed security agencies to take firm action against goons and criminal elements blamed for causing unrest and violence across the country. The Head of State ordered law enforcement agencies to move swiftly to end lawlessness and gang-related violence, particularly during political gatherings and public events. The President warned that unless the growing wave of criminality is contained, Kenya risks sliding into instability similar to that witnessed in conflict-ridden states such as Sudan.
