The son of the late former Provincial Commissioner Isaiah Cheluget has threatened legal action against President William Ruto over claims that the president purchased 5,600 acres of land in Narok South from the deceased.

While addressing residents at Sogoo trading center during a development tour of Narok County, President Ruto stated that he consulted with the late Cheluget regarding the land acquisition to resettle over 13,000 squatters.

However, Moses Kipkirui Cheluget, the late Cheluget's son, has strongly disputed this assertion, arguing that his father passed away in 2017, making any consultation impossible. "My father died in June 2017.

For the president to claim he spoke to him is not only misleading but deeply troubling," Kipkirui said. "If there were any consultations with our family, the majority of us were never informed.
