Deputy President William Ruto on Thursday stirred laughter when he praised the Embu MPs for not walking out on him even when they were not given an opportunity to speak during a function at the University of Embu.

“I want to thank the Members of Parliament in Embu for not making a walk out like others elsewhere. They demonstrated maturity and understanding that this is a university occasion and we can discuss other matters in other forums,” he said.
