The decision by President William Ruto to return to the culture giving out huge cash donations to churches in the midst of myriad of economic and healthcare challenges facing Kenyans is quite insensitive and uncalled for.

While attending a church service at Jesus Winner Ministry in Roysambu on Sunday last week, the President took Kenyans aback when he donated Sh20 million and promised to mobilise a further Sh100 million towards the construction of the church.
