President William Ruto is currently in Italy as he prepares to attend the funeral of Pope Francis, just moments after he concluded his official State visit in China.
Images obtained by Kenyans.co.ke showed Ruto being received by National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang'ula after his arrival in Rome, Italy.
This was despite reports suggesting that he had nominated Wetang'ula to represent him at the significant event that attracted notable world leaders such as United States President Donald Trump.
Ruto is set to be among 11 African Heads of State expected to be in attendance in a development that was confirmed by the Vatican.
