A visibly angry Ruto who spoke before the President challenged Raila's respect for the rule of law, following 'constant attacks' on independent institutions. “So how come the people who were leading us during the referendum are having a problem following the Constitution? That is why we are saying, please let's respect each other and follow the law,” Uhuru stated. Referring to the 1997 Inter-Parties Parliamentary Group (IPPG) and the Koffi Annan-led mediation talks, Raila said the two processes were championed outside Parliament by a select group of MPs. The President hit out at Raila for allegedly disrespecting the very Constitution that he rallied the country to support in 2010.
