Nandi Women Rep hopeful Dr. Tecla Tum capitalized on incumbent's absence during DP Ruto's visit

Nandi County Women Rep hopeful Dr. Tecla Tum last week minted political advantage from the absence of incumbent County Women Representative Zipporah Kering during a visit by Deputy President William Ruto in Nandi County.

Dr. Tum positioned herself well behind the Deputy President in the convoy of vehicles during Ruto's tour in the county to mobilize residents to register as voters.To her advantage, the women Rep aspirant caught the eye of the Deputy President.

In the first stop at Serem in Aldai constituency, the Deputy President mistakenly introduced Dr. Tum as the County Women Representative but realized that he had made an error.Mr. Ruto later on realized the mistake and corrected it.
