Exposed: What Britain assured Ruto while in london

Britain’s Secretary of State for International Development Penny Mordaunt said the current trade ties with Kenya will be enhanced despite the UK leaving the European Union.

Penny Mordaunt, who is also the Minister for Women and Equalities, made the assurance during a meeting with Deputy President William Ruto at the Department of International Development in London on Thursday.

“Brexit will not affect us. Technology can now help us engage in trading activities and has made things easier,” said Mordaunt.

The order to return home came as a surprise, since the same Statehouse had approved the DP’s trip after checking the president’s diary, it is a known fact that Uhuru’s diary is known months ahead of schedule, the Ethiopia trip was known to Statehouse than a year ago, this is pure sabotage.

Ruto was scheduled to address the Warwick African Summit as a key note speaker alongside Ghana’s first lady Samira Bawuma and the Rt Hon Wilson Tarpeh the Commerce Minister of Liberia. Well, he misses the event, a big disappointment and shame to the Presidency that they okayed a trip that runs parallel with the president’s trip.

The Warwick African summit is an annual two -day conference that celebrates the continents’ future as well as its economic growth. The even draws a pool of industry leaders with a wealth knowledge of the region.

To make matters worse, Ruto was not able to get a credible replacement like a government minister or even CAS to stand in for him so his slot was just skipped, so embarrassing. It could have been fair if for example the minister in charge of Trade could have attended the event on his behalf.

It is obvious that Statehouse is keen at cutting Ruto to size , but sabotaging his foreign trip is rather too much and makes Kenya look like a banana republic

Ruto was also forced to cancel an all sold out Diaspora cocktail meeting, it is said that Kenya’s high commissioner to London Manoah Esipisu received a call from his bosses in Nairobi ordering him to cancel the event
