“On behalf of the people of Elgeyo-Marakwet, we sincerely apologise to the head of State over political utterances by four MPs and a handful of MCAs, purporting to be speaking on behalf of the people on the ongoing investigations.”

These are the words of Elgeyo Marakwet Governor Alex Tolgos who apologized to President Uhuru on Monday.

“The rants do not in any way represent the views of the great people of Elgeyo Marakwet and its political leadership.”

The county boss said the lawmakers ought to have shown the President more respect instead of issuing threats through the media.

“If the MPs were irked by perceived differences between the President and DP William Ruto, owing to the handshake between the President and former Prime Minister Raila Odinga, they ought to have relaxed instead of ranting because Jubilee has mechanisms of resolving disputes,” he said.
