KDRTV NEWS: Deputy President William Ruto has condemned the attack on Rail Odinga`s chopper in his Uasin Gishu backyard.
Raila was in Uasin Gishu county to attend the burial of business mogul Jackson Jibor
The youths attacked the air shield of their helicopter
While condemning the attack, the Deputy President said that every politician has the right to sell their agenda in all corners of the nation
The UDA leader urged Kenyans to always listen to and evaluate the politicians and then make their own independent decision on whether or not to support them
“Every politician has the right to sell their agenda in every part of the country. We should listen, evaluate their policies and then decide whom to support. Political violence is retrogressive, divisive, and tears down our democracy. We condemn and reject it without reservation,” Ruto posted.
