William Ruto's 'shuttle' diplomacy has room in government

President William Ruto meets United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres in New York, USA. [PSCU, Standard]

A week is a long time in the life of our spanking new Prezzo Bill Ruto, who is suddenly swamped with lunch dates with kings and lords from far-away lands. He is still away as I write this, still lunching with more kings, I presume, although I saw him on a bus, smiling so broadly, we could see his wisdom teeth.

I'll revisit the bus manenos in a moment, but first, let me hail our new Prezzo for a lofty performance in New York. Yes, it's hard to keep track of him, and I don't know when he made it to the US. This time, he didn't use a malfunctioning iPad in his address, as he did in Kasarani; he had an invisible teleprompter that made many hustlers think he was speaking from the heart.
