Kenya’s President Ruto is under fire for using a private jet to travel to the US, claiming it was cheaper than Kenya Airways.
Critics argue he should have promoted the national airline instead. Ruto defends himself, saying he’s mindful of public funds.
While the US trip secured major deals, the jet controversy raises questions about government spending.
Some argue Ruto should have explained better why he chose a private jet over the national carrier.
Despite his defense, many remain critical, especially as concerns grow over government extravagance amidst tax hikes.
