President William Ruto was born into poverty and had no privileges. He nonetheless managed to advance to his current position in spite of that.
He can thank his mother Sarah Cheruiyot in part for his accomplishments.

Ruto performed what most parents anticipate of their children when they start working, Mama Sarah said in a previous interview.
Ruto offered to improve his family's living circumstances back in Kenya as soon as he started his businesses there.
Ruto's parents, however, declined the offer despite the fact that their son was willing to help them live a better life.

Why did they decline?
When Ruto's mother learned that her son wanted to build a cutting-edge home, she let him down gently since she believed that education should come first above lifestyle.
Instead, they requested that the DP use the funds for the schooling of his siblings.
