Bungoma governor Wycliffe Wangamati has refuted to claims that he is supporting Deputy President William Ruto’s 2022 presidential bid. The county boss said that he attends Ruto’s functions in Bungoma county because the latter is the deputy president. "As Ford Kenya, we will engage any presidential candidate in a structured way in case we think of a coalition. A section of Ford Kenya politicians, among them deputy party leader Boni Khalwale, have openly endorsed Ruto's State House bid. The move has not been received well with ANC party whose leaders had plans to merge with Ford Kenya.
