Deputy President William Ruto has stepped up his quest to retain Mt Kenya region as his stronghold ahead of the 2022 presidential race. The Star has learnt that the DP has planned a series of meetings in the vote-rich region that will see him visit four counties beginning tomorrow through to Sunday. Coming four days after the launch of Building Bridges Initiative at the Bomas of Kenya where President Uhuru Kenyatta appeared to soften his attacks on DP, it is understood that Ruto and his troops will also tone down. During the BBI launch where the President admitted that he has been part and parcel of bad politics, he appealed to Ruto to stop early 2022 campaigns.
