President William Ruto started his two-day tour of three counties in Nyanza on Friday, pledging support for government programmes and other initiatives meant to grow the economy of a region that has historically complained of marginalisation.
It is the second time Ruto is visiting the region as president, having attended a church service and addressed roadside meetings in Homa Bay County on October 2 – less than three weeks into his presidency.
