Kisumu residents dismiss ‘President Ruto’

Kisumu residents dismissed Uhuru Kenyatta’s move to appoint William Ruto as the acting president.
 
Through the Kisumu City Residence Voice, they described the move as a mere political gimmick aimed at appeasing the people of Rift Valley.

“It is a strategy to woo the already rebellious Rift Valley block. The president simply wants to compromise the political mood in the country,” the group’s chairman Audi Ogada said.

Ogada said Kenyatta wants to appease the people of Rift Valley so that they do not focus on Cord’s referendum push as a united block.
