William Ruto gives mixed signals on Judiciary and his agenda for Kenya

He had earlier asked the Kenya Revenue Authority to soften its ways of enforcing tax complaints. "There are alternative mechanisms of getting things done," he said.

While the president was imploring judges and magistrates not to get in his way while dealing with tax cheats and defaulters, his deputy Rigathi Gachagua was telling them that Ruto's administration would not interfere.
