Kenya's President William Ruto appears to be a man under pressure as he plays down concerns over unpopular policies and broken campaign promises.
The 56-year-old President said earlier this week that concerns over a second term in 2027 would not stop him from making the tough decisions he believes are necessary to grow the economy and improve livelihoods of Kenyans, mainly the poor.
