President William Ruto has made a surprising move by befriending the 'Dynasties', a group of influential Kenyan leaders from families that have held top positions in the country.
This change in stance is puzzling, given Ruto's past criticism of the 'Dynasties' during his 2022 campaign.

Ruto's sudden about-turn has left many wondering about his intentions, especially as the 2027 elections approach.
