We're just doing what we did in 2017, Kibicho to Ruto

Interior Principal Secretary (PS) Karanja Kibicho has told Deputy President William Ruto that senior State officers participating in election campaigns is not new, and that it happened in 2017, when Ruto was deeply involved in government operations.

Kibicho now says he's wondering why Ruto and his team are complaining of State officers' involvement in the electoral process, yet in 2017 the DP was silent when the then-opposition outfit, NASA, raised similar complaints.
