Nilijulishwa kuhusiana na ajali hiyo iliyotendeka huko juzi na nimepiga kukuambia kuwa tulifanya kazi nayeye natunakushukuru sana (Hello Nancy, How are you? My name is William Ruto; I’m calling to pass my condolences over the death of your daughter Maureen. I was told about the accident so I’m calling to inform you that she was one of us at Jubilee),” the DP said.

BIG 4 AGENDA

The DP then narrated how the late assisted Jubilee in the campaign as part of the team in Nyeri and that she had understood the Jubilee manifesto, especially the Big 4 agenda, well.

Dr Ruto said that he would support the family and urged the mother to be prayerful.
