Why I never attend the same church service With Ruto; Kindiki
Deputy President Kithure Kindiki on Sunday explained why he and his boss, President William Ruto, rarely attend the same church service
Deputy President Kithure Kindiki on Sunday explained why he and his boss, President William Ruto, rarely attend the same church service.
Speaking at a thanksgiving service at Friends Church (Quakers) in Navakholo Constituency, Kakamega County, on December 8, Kindiki explained that as the executive, they decided to interact with the people through different visits.
Therefore, attending the same services would inhibit their reach to address the masses.
“We have decided to divide ourselves into various groups so that we can reach as many parts as possible. That’s why you can see there is a place where President Ruto is visiting today,” he explained.
The second in command has adopted his boss’ routine of visiting church services every other Sunday. However, the duo on rare occasions visit the same church together.
In his explanation, Kindiki noted that the separate visits by senior government officials are aimed at taking development to all the corners of the country.
“We do this so that the government can ensure inclusion of all Kenyans. If we all stay together in one place, the speed of development will be slow,” Kindiki stated.
The former cabinet secretary for Interior told Kenyans they should not be worried if they see various officials making separate visits, as it is their strategy to interact with the people.

“Other senior leaders in government from this region, we work together even if they are not present here today,” he emphasised.
“Musalia Mudavadi is in Kilifi, and my brother speaker Moses Wetangula is in Wajir. There are some cabinet secretaries we have sent to Meru. So we are all working together even those who are not here are part of us.”
DP Kindiki also weighed in on the thorny issue of the reconstitution of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC).
Kindiki defending the government, explained that the lack of a functional IEBC was due to a court injunction that prevented the formation of a recruitment panel tasked with appointing new IEBC officials, telling off critics to avoid politicizing the matter.
The deputy president also pledged the donation of a brand-new bus to the church by President William Ruto. Additionally, he promised to deliver 100 computers to a TVET institution in Navakholo by January 2025.
