In the run-up to the 2022 General Election, President William Ruto's camaraderie with the church blossomed to a point where several Kenyan voters were entirely convinced to vote for him based on his religious doctrine.
The events at the Bomas of Kenya on August 15 of the same year attracted criticism, particularly on how some church leaders like Anglican Church of Kenya Archbishop Jackson Ole Sapit chose to be present at an event whose outcomes had been protested.
Fast-forward to 2024, the friendship between Ruto and the church blossomed at the beginning of the year, with some reports from a section of the media suggesting that there was a special group of intercessors ideally positioned to help pray at State House in Nairobi.
The religious nature of the first families of Kenya was a major debate, especially their sentiments on how they envisioned transforming Kenya into a God-fearing nation.
