Deputy President Dr William Ruto has continued to poke holes in areas believed to be his rivals’ strongholds ahead of his 2022 political gameplan.
On Friday, businesses came into standstill in Luanda as Dr Ruto made triumph entry to Mumboha grounds, within the expansive Vihiga County which is believed to be ODM leader Raila Odinga’s stronghold and the home for ANC party leader Musalia Mudavadi.

It was the third trip to the county which is headed by ODM governor Wilberforce Otchillo. Thousands lined up to have a glimpse at Dr Ruto, who had earlier graced an event at Chesumei constituency.
Dr Bonie Khalwale, one of his chief campaigners, lauded the attendance, which he admits that was unique given the voting patterns of Western region.
“Today I saw so many people at @WilliamsRuto’s rally in Luanda, Vihiga that I almost thought I was at Malinya Stadium where I call ALL the shots. Western, thank u for being part of the dream of the New Kenya,” Khalwale tweeted.

The DP, who has been accused by his opponents of premature campaigns, maintained that he’s focused to help President Uhuru Kenyatta deliver.
