Deputy President William Ruto spent hours in the counties Murang’a and Nyeri hunting for votes ahead of the August 9 polls.

Ruto backed by his allies led by Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro said he was the best in the service delivery as compared to his rival Raila Odinga of Azimio La Umoja Coalition.   

In Murang’a town, Ruto pleaded with the electorate to support his bid saying before the development programmes initiated by the Jubilee Government were sabotaged the country was doing well in the construction of roads, the connection of water, and electricity among others.

“On the polling day I humbly seek your support wake up early and walk into the polling station and cast your vote backing my candidature,” said the Deputy President.

 He also introduced to the crowd the Murang’a gubernatorial candidates, senator Irungu Kang’ata of UDA, Irungu Nyakera ( Farmers Party), and Wairagu wa Maai( DP). Others who accompanied Ruto were MPs Alice Wahome( Kandara), and Mary Wamaua( Maragua).
