Ruto allies clash with Sifuna supporters as political tensions rise

The battle for the Western vote intensified after President Ruto's allies clashed with Sifuna supporters at a funeral in Bumula, Bungoma County. Nominated Senator Connie Wakwabubi was booed as MP Jack Wamboka grabbed her microphone over the two-term narrative, declaring the region’s support for Sifuna’s one-term campaign. Meanwhile, in Kiharu, People’s Party leader Ndindi Nyoro renewed his attack on President Ruto over the proposed sale of Kenya Pipeline Company shares, accusing him of pursuing interests at the expense of ordinary Kenyans.
