Ruto allies intensify re-election campaigns

Leaders allied to President William Ruto have intensified campaigns for his re-election, with allies in Nakuru from the Kikuyu and Kalenjin communities calling for renewed political cohesion between the two communities. The leaders invoked memories of the political partnership between Ruto and former President Uhuru Kenyatta. Meanwhile, in Malava and Kisumu, the President's allies dismissed the opposition's political strategy while declaring their support for his bid for a second term.
