She says that the people of Mt. Kenya have seen what is happening in the country, and many of them are now moving away from him. According to her, this is something Ruto cannot ignore because it is real and it is happening now.
Omanga explains that in the past, Mt. Kenya was like Ruto’s strong home. The people there would vote for him and support him almost automatically. Leaders knew that without Mt. Kenya, it would be very hard for Ruto to win national politics.
It was considered his strong area, the place he could rely on. But Omanga says that this has changed. She says the loyalty from people is not the same anymore. People are now thinking for themselves.
They are watching what Ruto is doing while he is in power. They are making choices based on what is good for them and for their communities, not just because Ruto is from Mt. Kenya.
She says this should be a warning to Ruto. Omanga says that no leader can take a region or community for granted. If Ruto keeps ignoring the needs and problems of the people, he will lose more than votes.
He will lose trust, respect, and influence. She says political power is not forever. It comes from trust, service, and understanding people. Once that trust is lost, even the strongest base can weaken or disappear completely.
Omanga also says that this is not just talk. People are watching closely. They look at promises, policies, and results. If leaders fail to deliver, people will move on.
No amount of speeches or past influence will bring them back. She says political loyalty must be earned every day. Assuming people will always support you just because they did before is a big mistake.
Omanga is sending a very clear message: Mt. Kenya is no longer Ruto’s safe area. Leaders must listen to people, serve them, and show results if they want real support. If they fail, people will shift, and political power can be lost very fast.
