Meanwhile, Prof Winnie Mitullah, an experienced hand in political strategy from the University of Nairobi, has admitted that Ruto has a cult following in Mt Kenya and this is his advantage when it comes to winning the 2022 presidential election.
“Central Kenya has the numbers and if you don’t have the region on your side in the race to State House, you’re not going far,” Mitula said.
Meru County is part of the Mt Kenya region.
