President Ruto had an extensive tour of Luo Nyanza, which dominated the conversation when he hosted some Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) MPs at State House, Nairobi, on Tuesday afternoon.
President Ruto met Dr. Gideon Ochanda (Bondo), Caroli Omondi (Suba South), Elisha Odhiambo (Gem), Paul Abuor (Rongo), Felix Odiwuor ‘Jalang’o (Lang’ata), Mark Nyamita (Uriri), and Kisumu Senator Prof. Tom Ojienda.
Also present were ICT and Digital Economy Cabinet Secretary Eliud Owalo and Interior Principal Secretary Raymond Omollo.
Writing on his official Twitter handle, President Ruto said he intends to work with all leaders, regardless of party, tribe, or region.
“We will work with leaders across the country without reservation or discrimination, regardless of political affiliation, to deliver services to the people. This is what the Constitution demands and what all Kenyans deserve,” said Dr Ruto.
He did not go into details of the meeting with the MPs from Azimio leader Raila Odinga’s turf.
The meeting comes ahead of the President’s planned tour of Homa Bay and Siaya counties next week.
The Head of State is expected to be in Suba South and Karachuonyo constituencies on July 23 and later in Mr. Odinga’s backyard of Gem and Bondo on July 24.
He will be hosted by Mr. Omondi in Suba and later proceed to Oriwo Boys High School to grace the Thanksgiving ceremony of Interior PS Omollo.
Dr. Omollo’s event was scheduled for July 15 but has been rescheduled to July 23, according to Mr. Omondi.
