‘’Zakayo’’ Kenyan Context
In May 2023, the name Zakayo surfaced on social platforms after the introduction of new tax proposals made by the Ruto-led administration.
Months later President Wiliam Ruto said he had no problem with people calling him names
“I don’t mind people calling me names. I will continue to do the right thing for our country irrespective of the names people call me including Zakayo,” Ruto said.
Further to that Ruto said he has no problem being referred to as Zakayo adding that it is better than letting the country sink into debt.
“Nikasema tulipe Housing Levy, watu wakasema ya kwamba naleta mambo ya ‘Zakayo’. Heri mimi nikuwe ‘Zakayo’ lakini hawa vijana wapate ajira, heri niitwe ‘Zakayo’ na Kenya issingie kwa madeni,” he said.
