Ruto went straight ahead to defend his administration against criticism brought on by the rise in the cost of electricity. He said the costs are contributed by various tariffs whose review is done after three years.

He, however, promised a grand plan to lower the cost of living, as well as address funding problems in universities, promote the growth of engineering and science courses in technical institutions, as well as roll out Universal Health Coverage.

He also defended himself over failures to implement the NHIF scheme saying NHIF was rotten when I took over office.

The head of state also defended his proposed amendment to the Constitution to create the Office of the Leader of Opposition, saying he has no business fixing a job for Raila Odinga.
