Speaking on Spice FM on Thursday, July 24, Munene noted that the President should not traslate the demonstrations by the youth as moral decay in the society.
“Kenyans do not control their destiny anymore; the sovereignty of the country is gone. This youth people are only expressing their feelings and need for a better country,” he warned.
Munene pointed out that the generation was built from a stronger core, and the president should desist from blaming parents.

He blamed President Ruto’s advisors who he said are contributing to the downfall of his vision.
