Speaking to the Press later, the deputy governor said it was unfortunate that he was denied fuel because of personal differences that exist between him and Governor Isaac Ruto. Last week, Ruto threatened to withdraw the vehicle and any other privileges Mutai enjoys if he did not report to his office. He said it was wrong for Mutai to enjoy the privileges, yet he does not carry out his official duties. Mutai was stranded at the petrol station for about two hours, attracting hundreds of residents who threatened to forcibly fuel the car.
