More often than not, President William Ruto has found himself on the receiving end over some of his directives, sometimes finding himself at the center of ridicule from Kenyans for renegading on his own words.
Kenyans have not shied away from speaking their minds, complete with nick-names for President Ruto which he interestingly accepts, saying such actions will not deter him from delivering on his presidential mandate.
Some of his directives, for instance on harambees, have caused him to be at loggerheads with the church, particularly Catholic and Anglican Church of Kenya (ACK) who have even ordered return of his contribution in some instances.
Contributions to churches continue to elicit debate on how and where to strike the balance between faith and politics even as it raises questions about conflict of interest, in addition to where the substantial amounts of money come from.
