Unlike previous national events where county governors used national holidays to outline their development records, most counties marked this year’s Mashujaa without their county bosses. In Kiambu, Juja Deputy County Commissioner Charles Muriithi faced a hostile crowd when he rose to deliver Dr Ruto’s speech. A similar walkout was staged on Deputy County Commissioner Gitonga Murungi when he rose to read Dr Ruto’s speech at Kangangu grounds. Murang’a Senator Joe Nyutu said he saw no need to attend the celebrations owing to the sad state of affairs in President Ruto’s administration. In Nakuru, a funeral service in Bahati turned chaotic on October 11 as mourners registered their displeasure with the actions of President Ruto’s regime.
