Mixed reactions greet Ruto’s new foray into Western

Bungoma County, Kenya: Deputy President William Ruto has embarked on a charm offensive to woo western Kenya into the newly formed Jubilee Alliance Party (JAP).

Ruto was last week in the vote rich region, where he promised that New Ford-Kenya leader and former Justice minister Eugene Wamalwa would soon be appointed to a Government position. “We have resolved to bring all parties into JAP so we can be re-elected in 2017. The Luhya community should not be left out by being misled to join other parties,” the DP told residents of Kimatuni in Bungoma County and  Lugari constituency.
