A Migori County Assembly member, George Omamba, has publicly called for President William Ruto to extend his term beyond the constitutional two-term limit.

During a meeting at State House Nairobi with Ruto and youth representatives, Omamba argued that Ruto's achievements in sports, housing, and youth employment have already secured his re-election for 2027.He claimed the president has effectively campaigned for himself through these initiatives, reducing the need for traditional election efforts.Omamba went further, stating that Ruto has already won the upcoming polls and should be granted an 'everlasting presidency.' However, Ruto did not respond directly, as Kenya's constitution currently restricts the presidency to two five-year terms.Any change would require a constitutional amendment, which needs parliamentary approval and a national referendum.

The president highlighted investments in sports infrastructure, including 34 stadiums under construction and a new facility in Migori County for local talent.He also emphasized programs supporting youth employment, affordable housing, and business growth as key to Kenya's development.
