Kenyans lack trust in president Ruto, police and parliament - TIFA survey

In its second edition of the National Survey, TIFA reported that a majority of the respondents who took part in the survey expressed distrust in President William Ruto (45%) against 11% who expressed full trust in him.

Likewise, 43 per cent of the respondents lack trust in the police against 8% and another 42 per cent said they do not trust Parliament against 7%.

TIFA conducted the poll with a sample size of 2,013 respondents across all 47 counties.

The respondents (41%) also said they lack faith in the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC), as 10 per cent said they believe in the institution.

Thirty two percent also said they do not trust the Judiciary, while 11% maintained their confidence.

The respondents argued that these institutions have failed to satisfy their mandates in key policy areas that sustain reputable governance.

These sectors include taxation, security, health, education, political stability,  election preparedness and protection of human rights.
