Ruto leads a team of 40 clergymen in cleansing State House before he officially occupies the residence
Ruto made a special request to the clergymen to cleanse his official residence, State House before he officially moves in.
President William Ruto on Sunday, September 25, during a thanksgiving service held at the State House Gardens, Ruto, asked the men of the cloth to cleanse his official residence before he embarks on using it to discharge his duties.
William Ruto revealed that a team of 40 clergymen had been selected to lead the prayer session, which would see them dedicate the entire facility to God.
“After this service, there is a part two which may not be as organized as the first session. We will ask 30 or 40 of our senior clergy to pray over this building and this residence, and the offices so that God can give us solutions for this country.
“Do not leave after lunch, speak award of blessing on this grounds and around this compound, even on the farm, everywhere! Those who can speak in tongues, please do so, so that it is known that the new tenants have arrived,” the President stated.
Ruto told his guests that he had shared the same information with the people in charge while being aware that his decree would deviate from presidential protocol.
The Head of State also made three special prayer requests to the church leaders to pray for the country.
After the banditry attack in Turkana that left eleven people dead, including eight police officers, he requested the clergy to implore God on his behalf that peace would reign in the nation.
He also asked that prayers be said for those tasked with keeping the peace both inside and outside of the nation.
Finally, he pleaded for divine assistance to end the nation’s economic dilemma, which he repeated was in a dire situation.
“I want you to pray for our economy because we are not in a very good place. As we speak today, we are chained to many debts; 65 percent of our income is used to pay the debt. Things are difficult but we shall succeed,” he noted.
