Diamond Message To Kenya After Ruto Declared President-Elect
Tanzanian singer Naseeb Abdul Juma, better known as Diamond Platnumz, recently congratulated Kenyans on the election of William Ruto as president-elect.
In his congratulatory message, the WCB CEO urged Kenyans to put aside their political differences, embrace unity, and focus on the country’s growth.
“PONGEZI sana wana Kenya kwa kuhitimisha zoezi la uchaguzi na kumpata rais leo. Sasa hivi tena sio Team Ruto, Wajackoyah ama team Raila Odinga. Ni kwa pamoja kuendeleza maendeleo ya kenya na wana kenya kwa ujumla.”
(“Congratulations to Kenyans for concluding the electoral exercise and getting a president today. Right now, it’s not “team Ruto, Wajackoyah or team Raila Odinga” it is team Kenya. Right now together, we advance the development of Kenya and Kenyans in general.”)
The bongo superstar, on the other hand, made a surprise appearance at the Kasarani stadium for the final Azimio Rally, where he endorsed Raila for President.
Ruto was declared president-elect by IEBC chairman Wafula Chebukai after receiving 7,176,141 votes, representing 50.49 percent of the final result, while Raila received 6,942,930 votes, representing 48.85 percent.
