Ruto, allies plot how to win back Mt Kenya

President William Ruto and his deputy Kithure Kindiki during 2024 Mashujaa Day celebrations in Kwale County.

Following a fallout with his friend turned rival, former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua, President William Ruto has crafted a strategy to regain Mt Kenya region which has been drifting by the day after Gachagua’s impeachment.

The strategy, which involves using celebrated secular and gospel artists, will see peace caravans being conducted in all 11 counties from the Mt Kenya region.

The idea arose following the heckles and jeers from Embu County on November 16 when dissatisfied congregants booed the president when he attempted to elaborate his pet projects; affordable housing and the controversial Social Health Insurance Fund (SHIF).
