Kenya’s fifth Head of State, William Samoei Ruto has missed to attend the burial ceremony of the former Cabinet Secretary for Education, the late Prof. George Magoha.
As reported by mainstream sources, his deputy Rigathi Gachagua has similarly failed to attend Magoha’s last send off at Yala, in Siaya County.
This is a complete opposite of what was expected by the people of Kenya.
Majority would have been wishing to see President Ruto for the first time sharing a common ground with the Azimio leader Raila Odinga who is among the dignitaries in-attendance.
Former President Uhuru Kenyatta has also been among the dignitaries present.
Due to President’s absence, his speech at the funeral will be read by ICT Cabinet Secretary, Mr Eliud Owalo.
