The much anticipated return of Deputy President William Ruto to Nyamira on Friday will after all not take place following last minute changes.
Dr Ruto had toured the region three weeks ago where he was endorsed by several leaders from the region ahead of 2022 presidential contest.
The Friday trip would have seen the DP cover both North Mugirango and Kitutu Masaba constituencies for commissioning of various development projects.
North Mugirango MP Joash Nyamoko confirmed the cancellation of the trip but did not give further details.
"We were expecting him on Friday but the trip has been cancelled. That's all I can say for now," Nyamoko said in a brief phone interview.
Similar remarks were made by Kitutu Masaba MP Shadrack Mose, who said the trip will be rescheduled for another date.
"There is nothing to worry. The trip shall come at a later date. We were all hoping for this Friday but it's not possible for now," he said.
On Tuesday, several youth leaders led by Ben Mogaka held meetings within Nyamira town where they discussed about receiving the DP.
Incidentally, the trip was to take place a week after Interior Cabinet Secretary Dr Fred Matiang'i stormed the county where several leaders endorsed him for president.
