Caleb Amisi confident Kenyans will send Ruto home and end tribal politics
By Kiprono Keileb, October 26, 2025Saboti Member of Parliament Caleb Amisi has once again targeted President William Ruto, criticising him for promoting tribal politics and urging Kenyans to unite beyond ethnic lines ahead of the 2027 elections.
In a statement posted on his X account on Sunday, October 26, 2025, Amisi said the country is ready to reject leaders who thrive on division and deceit. He expressed confidence that Kenyans will not only vote out President Ruto but also end the politics of tribalism that he claims has long been used to manipulate voters.
“This is very good. As we send Ruto home, we are also sending home his politics of tribalism,” Amisi said.
The Saboti legislator, known for his outspoken political stance, urged Kenyans to focus on unity and shared national values rather than being drawn into ethnic conflicts. He said politicians who exploit tribal emotions for personal gain are the real enemies of progress.
“Kenyans must never allow politicians to create imaginary tribal animosity. We are one indivisible nation called Kenya,” he said.
Amisi added that Kenya’s challenges are rooted not in tribal differences but in what he described as “retrogressive leadership”. He accused the current administration of using ethnic divisions to distract citizens from poor governance and economic hardship.
“Our enemy is retrogressive leadership led by William Ruto,” Amisi said.
He went on to encourage leaders to visit all regions freely, regardless of their ethnic or political affiliations, saying the era of tribal boundaries in politics should come to an end.
“Gachagua visit Bondo tomorrow, Oburu visit Nyeri next week, Ruto visit anywhere,” he said, emphasising that Kenyans should differ on ideas, not identity.
In closing, Amisi reminded leaders and citizens alike that politics should be driven by policies and principles, not hatred or tribal loyalty.
“Let’s differ in policies, issues, ideologies, and the day Jesus is coming back,” he added.
Amisi’s statement contributes to the growing political debate surrounding unity, leadership, and succession as the country gradually builds momentum toward the 2027 general elections.
