President Ruto Urges Kenyans to Embrace Farming for a Prosperous Future

In a powerful and inspiring message, President William Ruto continues to champion the importance of agriculture in shaping Kenya’s economic future. In a recent video shared widely on social media, the President passionately calls on all Kenyans — especially the youth — to return to the land and take farming seriously.

"Kilimo si kazi ya watu wameshindwa maisha. Kilimo ni biashara. Na biashara ya kilimo ni ya faida kuliko hata ofisi zingine." — President Ruto

As a farmer myself, growing potatoes in the Porro Highlands of Samburu, I strongly resonate with the President’s words. Agriculture is no longer just about feeding our families — it's a gateway to wealth, food security, and national pride. With good planning, the right support, and unity, farming can change lives and empower communities.

Let’s take this message seriously. Whether you're in Samburu, Eldoret, or Nairobi, the soil beneath us holds untapped potential. It’s time to dig deep, plant, water, and harvest the future we want for our children.
