When President William Ruto entered into a political pact with the former President Uhuru Kenyatta in 2013 as a result of the International Criminal Court (ICC) charges each had their own expectations. Although they were united in fear of being jailed, Uhuru was eyeing the president but his deputy had grand plans for Mt Kenya region.

After ascending to power as Kenya's first deputy president, Ruto became a regular visitor in the Mt Kenya region, presenting himself as Uhuru's errand boy.
