President William Ruto has trademarked the phrase “Mambo ni matatu” which went viral in September when he issued a stern warning to sugar cartels.

The President also repeated the phrase at the Africa Climate Summit which took place at the KICC where he spoke about the three things needed for Africa to be at par with the rest of the world when it came to fighting climate change – Speed, Skill and resources.

“As we say in Kenya, mambo ni matatu,” he said.

The President’s Lawyer Adrian Kamotho said anyone seeking to use the phrase with the three-finger signifier must seek permission from Dr Ruto.
