„Where there is no guidance, a nation falls, but in an abundance of counsellors there is safety.“ -Proverbs 11:14

President Ruto used the word „sovereignty“ eight times on Tuesday. Wit, eight times!

In a closing address at his own summit, on his own soil, beside his guest. When a host nation repeats that word eight times in one speech, it is not rhetoric.
