On Sunday, August 3, 2025, Bishop William Kotut of the African Inland Church (AIC) delivered a sermon at AIC Kabartonjo in Baringo County.
He publicly admonished Kenya’s youth (Gen Z) for their habit of verbally disrespecting President William Ruto and other national leaders.
Bishop Kotut expressed concern over Gen Z’s increased tendency to use derogatory or demeaning language against the president and other adults, which he considers inappropriate and destructive.
He emphasized that, while physical wounds can be healed, emotional and psychological scars left by words can last far longer.
Bishop Kotut drew a parallel to the biblical account in which youth mock the bald prophet Elijah and face dire consequences—warning the youth they risk inviting trouble if they continue such behavior.
He urged young people to change their mindset and language about their nation and its leadership, stressing that disrespectful remarks about the president or elders undermine societal values.
The sermon was delivered in the presence of prominent dignitaries, including Deputy President Kithure Kindiki, local MPs, and the County Commissioner—indicating the message was intended for a wider audience beyond the congregation.
This address is part of a broader national conversation where church leaders and political figures alike are addressing the tone and substance of youth engagement—particularly in light of recent protests and vocal Gen Z activism.
