Activist Morara Kebaso, known for his vocal criticism of President William Ruto, has appealed to Kenyans to support his efforts in promoting civic education on good governance. Kebaso gained public attention after repeatedly highlighting what he claims are incomplete projects initiated by President Ruto.
In his latest move, Kebaso has requested Kenyans to help raise funds for a Public Address (PA) system, estimated to cost between Ksh840,000 and Ksh1.2 million. Specifically, the presidential-grade PA system would cost Ksh1.278 million, while the Middle Sound option would cost Ksh838,200. Kebaso intends to use the PA system exclusively for civic education and campaigns advocating for good governance.
Kebaso also plans to engage his audience more directly by organizing caravans where participants can discuss strategies to improve governance in Kenya. His fundraising appeal has been met with enthusiasm, with many Kenyans expressing their support in the comment section of his social media posts.
“We fully support this move. They will not believe,” one commenter noted. Another added, “The message must spread by sending mine in solidarity.” Some supporters have even suggested that Kebaso should consider running against President William Ruto in the 2027 elections.
Kebaso, a young entrepreneur who runs Morara Home Furniture and employs over 85 people, has gained attention not only for his activism but also for his unique impersonations of President Ruto. He mimics the president's speech, mannerisms, and even signature attire, such as Kaunda suits and sunroofed Prados. Through these impersonations, Kebaso has drawn public awareness to stalled projects and instances where projects have been launched multiple times.
Recently, Kebaso had a public confrontation with State House Spokesman Hussain Mohammed after alleging that he received a personal call from President Ruto, who reportedly offered him a prestigious job. The State House, however, denied these claims, with the spokesman stating, “I am shocked at what Morara is saying. I wonder why he would lie on national TV that the President called him."
Despite the controversy, Kebaso, who calls himself the "Chief Registrar of Broken Promises," has vowed to continue his critique of Kenya’s leadership until he brings about meaningful change in the country’s governance.
