Should I have failed to attend because Dr Ruto was going to the same function like what the Nakuru governor did?” Mr Kabogo posed. The former governor said he is an independent thinker who can attend to both Mr Kenyatta’s and Dr Ruto’s functions. Mr Kabogo fell out with Mr Ruto after the 2017 Jubilee Party primaries in which he was defeated by Mr Ferdinand Waititu who went on to win the Kiambu governor’s seat. He asked the government to sack, arrest or charge Dr Ruto if they think he is corrupt rather than giving empty threats. In any case, I have not heard the President withdrawing his support for the deputy president in his 2022 presidential ambition,” she said.
