Yet another ally of Deputy President William Ruto was booted yesterday from a top parliamentary caucus on account of alleged failure to offer visionary leadership.

Purity Ngirici, the Kirinyaga Women Representative and chair of the Kenya Women Parliamentarians Association (Kewopa), was removed by her colleagues, weeks after other Ruto allies, including herself, were cleared off parliamentary committee leadership.
