Kenya: Ruto Accuses US-Funded Ford Foundation Of Sponsoring Protests & Anarchy | Firstpost Africa
Kenya’s President William Ruto has accused the US-funded Ford Foundation of sponsoring protests and anarchy in the country. Ruto said the Ford Foundation was funding the anti-government protests that have gripped Kenya since last month. He added that the organisation could leave if it was not interested in democracy in Kenya. The Ford Foundation has denied sponsoring anarchy, violence and chaos in Kenya, as claimed by President Ruto. The East African country plunged into chaos since protests, which began as peaceful rallies, turned violent against the government’s proposed tax hikes and spiralled into a wider campaign against Ruto. Will the Kenyan President’s statement impact US-Kenya ties? Watch this video for details.
