Maraga dismisses Ruto’s ‘Singapore dream’ as PR gimmick

Retired Chief Justice David Maraga has dismissed President William Ruto’s ambition to elevate Kenya to the economic status of some of the world’s developed nations, terming it a populist pitch designed to win public support. Maraga urged the president to prioritise a decisive crackdown on corruption, warning that meaningful development will remain elusive unless graft in government is firmly dealt with.
