Ruto ajiite kamkutano and ask himself why almost every major project associated with his government quickly becomes a debate about ownership, private interests, and who is really sitting behind the investment, even where the project itself may make economic sense.
The bigger problem is no longer the project being announced, because many Kenyans have developed a deep suspicion that somewhere inside every huge deal Ruto has connected interests waiting to benefit, and that perception now follows Ruto into almost everything his government touches.
That is why simply telling people that the Dangote refinery means jobs, investment and industrial growth will not settle the argument, because the first question many people are asking is no longer whether a refinery is useful, but who ultimately benefits from the structure surrounding it.
Ruto has reached a point where a large section of the public appears unwilling to take major investment announcements at face value, and aggressive public relations only makes that trust problem harder to ignore.
The issue is not that Kenyans suddenly hate development, factories, refineries, roads or foreign investors, because people understand perfectly well that a country needs large investments to grow and create jobs for its population.
The problem is that Ruto has allowed questions about private interests, political connections, and personal benefit to become part of the public conversation around major government-backed investments, meaning even projects that could genuinely help Kenya arrive immediately carrying political suspicion.
Maybe Dangote is simply the investor everyone can see, and there is nothing else behind the arrangement, but Ruto should understand why people now instinctively ask whether the visible face of a major investment is the whole story.
That is the real political damage here, because once citizens start believing that the people announcing development may also have private interests somewhere inside the deal, every new project stops being judged purely on jobs, taxes and economic value.
Ruto cannot solve that problem by portraying every critic as anti-development, because the argument is no longer about whether Kenya should develop, but whether citizens trust the people arranging these enormous deals to separate public interest from private benefit.
And that is the kamkutano he needs to have with himself, because the biggest problem facing his projects may no longer be the opposition, activists, or critics, but the level of distrust that now follows his name into the room before the project has even been explained.
@juma_brenan Changamwe oil refinery was closed and converted to storage where Kenyan's lost Job's.
The current fuel traders are paying taxes with or without Dangote refinery.
The current traders equally employ Kenyans .

DANGOTE EAST AFRICA REFINERY: This post is for archives. It will be useful soon when the dust settles.
Anyone who knows this government knows one thing, every popular project and program is usually the most vulnerable to Patronage. They always know you can always get away with anything and attack those who ask credible questions as โwale hawataki tujenge this or thatโ.
We are all in support of Foreign Direct Investments and especially from our African investors like Dangote. The questions and responsibilities is on the Government of Kenya who must not blubber but just make everything public.
1. We asked about the shareholders of the Kenyan subsidiary of Dangote refinery - Dangote East African Refinery. The response from the President was lengthy but didnโt provide such a simple request. Who are the shareholders of the Kenyan Subsidiary of Dangote East African Refinery? Simple. No anger, no explanation. Just the shareholders list.
2. How much land are we ceding to Dangote refinery? Is the value being converted to Equity or shareholding? What is the value?
3. How much has Kenya committed to invest directly into Dangote East Africa Refinery? Is there premium in the amount?
4. In the Lagos Refinery, the company had to build their own infrastructure including a Port and roads. Will the investment done by the previous governments in regard to Port and all count for anything? How much?
5. Is there any agreement committing Kenya into off take of the refined products? At what cost? As I type this, Nigeria where Dangote Cement is dominant has the highest retail prices of Cement in Africa. This is based of policies and agreements like the ones we must now make public.
If the government cannot provide these details, we will do so on their behalf. We are not asking these questions because we donโt know the details, we are only giving them a chance to do what a responsible government should do.
We are African and Africa is our Business..
