A month ago when the IEBC chairperson Wafula Chebukati announced election results at the Bomas of Kenya I was thrilled.

The win for William Ruto was a win for the Northern parts of Kenya. In the first place, throughout his leadership journey, William Ruto has been identifying with the pastoralist community. When he formed the United Republican Party, the party that jointly with TNA formed the Jubilee Alliance, Ruto used the horn of a cow as a symbol of the party. For him, that was a party to advocate for pastoralist issues.
