President William Ruto was on a two-day whirlwind tour of a region that had gigantic expectations after voting for him to the last man.
Ruto launched a number of water and road projects in Elgeyo Marakwet and Uasin Gishu counties on Thursday and Friday last week.
He toured a region where youth have become increasingly critical of his style of leadership.
A massive Gen Z Anti-Finance Bill protests shook the President's home town, Eldoret, on June 20, 2024, and the President was seen as losing grip of his turf.
