George Ruto Sparks Online Frenzy After Liking AI Video Of Gachagua And Kindiki As Rap Stars

President William Ruto’s son, George Ruto, has set social media abuzz after eagle-eyed users spotted him liking a viral AI-generated video featuring former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua and current DP Kithure Kindiki in an unexpected hip-hop setting.

The satirical clip, uploaded on Thursday, July 23, 2026, depicts the two political heavyweights transformed into flashy rap artists dripping in heavy jewelry. The video’s highlight features a digital avatar of Gachagua operating hydraulics to make a lowrider car bounce to the beat while Kindiki cheers from the background.

This is not the first time George has interacted with such satirical media. Social media users noted that he has previously liked similar AI-generated content starring Gachagua, leading many to view his latest interaction as a nod to the creator’s humor rather than a political statement.

Online commentators quickly seized on the gesture, with many interpreting it as proof that the Ruto family maintains a lighthearted view of political rivalries despite Gachagua’s high-profile impeachment. The viral video forms part of a popular series by local digital creators recasting Kenyan politicians in various pop culture tropes, from hip-hop stars to reggae enthusiasts.
