During the high-profile Rhema Feast gathering at Nairobi’s iconic Uhuru Park, renowned Nigerian preacher Apostle Joshua Selman delivered a stark and uncompromising message directly addressing President William Ruto and Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen regarding the country’s national direction.
The renowned preacher decided to tell the two leaders nothing but the truth. He warned them against what will eventually happen in the country.
Speaking to a massive audience that gathered in the capital city, the Eternity Network International founder bypassed routine spiritual pleasantries to tackle the fundamental nexus between national governance, public safety, and economic growth.
Selman focused his address heavily on the critical role that stability plays in driving foreign direct investment and national development. Addressing the nation’s political leadership, he emphasized that standard diplomatic efforts, trade negotiations, and policy reforms remain practically meaningless if the foundational environment lacks safety.
Foreign capital, domestic entrepreneurship, and long-term commerce inevitably flee regions plagued by volatility, lawlessness, or systemic internal security challenges.
In his blunt assessment, international investors and global corporate entities evaluate a country’s security architecture long before considering tax incentives or physical infrastructure.
The preacher’s remarks carry severe political resonance for President Ruto’s administration, which continues to face immense pressure to stabilize the nation’s economy and present Kenya as East Africa’s premier commercial hub.
By explicitly identifying safety as the indispensable gateway to commerce, Selman directed the administrative burden straight to Interior CS Kipchumba Murkomen, whose department oversees public order and internal safety.
The mandate requires the ministry to enforce strict security measures to protect both citizens and external enterprise.
Beyond economic theory, the speech served as a powerful reminder of how religious platforms at Uhuru Park increasingly host critical policy commentary in Kenya.
Selman framed the preservation of national peace not merely as a political goal, but as a moral imperative required to secure Kenya’s economic future. His warning underscored that without verifiable peace on the ground, high-level efforts to lure external capital will continuously stall.
