What Ruto asked from Kindiki

As previously reported, President Ruto mocked his former Deputy, who appeared to accuse him of negligence during his two years in office.

Addressing the nation during Kindiki's swearing-in in Nairobi on Friday, November 1, Ruto revealed that he has been left to continue the functioning of the National Executive Council without the support of his former deputy.

The head of state also suggested that Gachagua was not loyal to him.

He said he felt he was serving in the presidency alone despite having a deputy who was supposed to be his main assistant.

In a clear plea to Kindiki, Ruto asked him to use his eloquence, professorship and knowledge to inform Kenyans about the government's agenda and plans.
