President Uhuru Kenyatta used his last Madaraka Day fete and final national celebration to snub his Deputy Dr William Ruto and campaign for his preferred candidate.
Dr Ruto, who arrived minutes before his boss, was denied a chance to address the public and left out of the event’s line-up. Traditionally, during national ceremonies, the Deputy President (or previously the vice president) is in charge of the programme and invites speakers then makes his remarks before inviting the President to address the nation.
