President William Ruto dispatched MPs, governors and top state officials to prepare the ground for his Mt Kenya visit.
In anticipation of his visit, large billboards welcoming the President have been erected in major towns across Mt Kenya including Kiambu, Nyeri, Kirinyaga, along Thika Road, and in Embu.
The Star has established that Ruto will be hosting several pro-government MPs from the region at State House today or Friday– a meeting believed to be part of mobilisation to ensure a warm reception.
“It is true, the President will host the legislators from the region either tomorrow (Thursday) or Friday,” a State House source told the Star. The planned State House meeting follows a series of such meetings with the area elected leaders ahead of the visit.
