Presidential hopeful Dr Fred Matiang'i has accused President William Ruto of allegedly diverting public monies to fund the ongoing by-election campaigns in Nyamira.

According to Matiang'i, the Ruto administration had centered its energies on tokenism, which has disadvantaged critical Government departments, key among them capitation for schools and farmers' earnings.
