United Democratic Alliance Secretary General Hassan Omar dismissed calls for Ruto's ouster as divisive tribalism, recalling how Kikuyu elites in 1978 called Moi a 'passing cloud' before his 24-year rule.

Critics like Alfred Keter and Martha Karua rejected the ethnic framing, insisting the unrest stems from corruption, incompetence, and economic woes like high fuel costs and healthcare issues.
