The Deputy President William Ruto’s love for the church has given him an upper hand in breaking into many regions.
The self proclaimed Evangelist has been a friend of different churches across the different counties. The church leaders have always welcomed him to attend their services and later lead in the harambees.
Although this harambees have been critized especially by ANC Leader Musalia Mudavadi, DP Ruto has snubbed this allegations focusing in building of churches.
But this has given him an added advantage as Most churches from the Western Region have been welcoming to the Deputy President.
Over the weekend the Deputy President led a number of politicians to the western Region specifically Bungoma.
He was hosted by the Senate Speaker Ken Lusaka and the Diocese of Mabanga in Bungoma County. The Deputy President led the believers in celeebrating the 25th Anniversary of thanksgiving of Father Pius Lukhale.
In the event the Deputy President stated the importance of worship in creating a harmonious environment that incorporates dialogue ,coexistence and inclusivity in matters of national interests.
He also capitalized on that to say is the driving force to achieving of the national economic development.
The event was also attended by local leaders from the region. Chris Wamalwa and Westlands Member of Parliament Timothy Wanyonyi Wetangula among other leaders.
This has given him dominance ahead of Musalia Mudavadi and Moses Wetangula who are preaching the message of uniting the Luhya nation in the quest for solidifying their state house bid. But by the Deputy President invasion into the region it has continued to shutter their dreams of leading the nation.
