Natembeya Removes Ruto's Name From Market Plaque in Explosive Political Showdown

19th October, 2026

A dispute over the financing and political credit for Masinde Muliro Market in Kitale, Trans Nzoia County, has escalated into a standoff between President William Ruto and Governor George Natembeya.

Natembeya has removed a plaque bearing the President’s name and redistributed market stalls, insisting the county government financed the project.

The dispute comes amid heightened political tensions following the withdrawal of the governor’s security detail. Clashes in Kitale have also left two police officers injured and two government vehicles damaged.
