Kenya’s deputy presidet never ceases to amaze. Ever since the first covid 19 cases was confirmed, Ruto retreated to his palatial Karen home. His highly publicized church appearances became a historical phenomenon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Today when the office of the deputy president announced that Ruto was going to address the nation, many Kenyans expected a raft of new measures only for Ruto to carbon copy all that both the president and CS Kagwe have been saying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
@Steveogolla :Kenyans took to social media to register their displeasure..

\nFinally William Ruto resurfaces today to address the nation. Never seen a Deputy Commander in chief who hides during a national crisis. He should better have enough reasons for disappearing, hiding and abdicating duty at the time of a national crisis while drawing salary #COVID19<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some Kenyans went further and compared Ruto with Joho. So far Joho is the bench mark on how well to fight Covid 19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
