President William Ruto has urged all Kenyans to come together and work towards a better future for the country.

In his Easter message to the country, President Ruto noted that despite the challenges Kenyans have faced as a nation in recent times, they must remain steadfast in the pursuit of progress and prosperity.

“Kenya has over the recent past endured its share of difficulties and struggles weakened economic growth, depleted resources, debt and drought amidst political disagreements, said the President.

“Nevertheless, we have been given the divine gift of an opportunity to set things right and to get the country going at the right place and in the right direction.”

The President noted that his administration is making progress in delivering its commitments to transform the economy, and expressed optimism for the future with the arrival of the much-needed rains.

“Rains are here, once more there is goodwill and commitment to resolving the issues that affects us as a country. The enduring message of Easter is manifest in our collective and individual experiences as Kenyans in our own different ways,” he added.

President Ruto called on all Kenyans to put aside their differences and embrace the spirit of fraternity, and to find inspiration and hope from this season of miracles.

The message from the President comes at a time when the country is facing a number of challenges, including weakened economic growth, depleted resources, debt, and drought amidst political disagreements.

Here is President Ruto’s full Easter message:

To the people of Kenya and all our friends throughout the World, it is Easter, a Holy period when we solemnly commemorate an extraordinarily intense moment in Christianity.

It is when Jesus Christ endured trial and temptation, hatred and prejudice, violence and punishment, loneliness and betrayal, crucifixion and death, yet in the cold darkness of his tomb after the turmoil and injury, the promise of resurrection and eternal life shone like a light at the end of a tunnel. It is this promise that we live by and live for.

Kenya has over the recent past endured its share of difficulties and struggles weakened economic growth, depleted resources, debt and drought amidst political disagreements.

Nevertheless, we have been given the divine gift of an opportunity to set things right and to get the country going at the right place and in the right direction.

My administration is making progress in delivering its commitments to transform the economy.

Rains are here, once more there is goodwill and commitment to resolving the issues that affects us as a country. The enduring message of Easter is manifest in our collective and individual experiences as Kenyans in our own different ways.

The passage from struggle and adversity to victory and tranquillity, from divination and want to prosperity and fulfilment and from anxiety and uncertainty to calmness and peace, in the spirit of fraternity between all communities of faith, I invite all Kenyans and all our friends throughout the World to join Christians in celebrating this eternal assurance of hope.

I hope we shall all find and share inspiration from this season of miracles.

God bless you all and blessed Easter.
