Speaking on Tuesday at Getanga ward, the youthful legislator said DP Ruto understands the problems Kenyans are facing in deep villages. 

He noted that having been brought up with a lot of struggles, DP Ruto is the man to transform Kenya.

"DP Ruto was brought up in poverty before he struggled to get to where he is today. There is no doubt that once he gets to State House, poverty in this country will be a thing of the past. The claims that he will squander public funds are untrue," said Osoro.

He appealed to residents in the constituency to rally behind DP Ruto in 2022 arguing that DP Ruto is a development-oriented leader. 

According to Osoro, constituents have been supporting the former Prime Minister Raila Odinga who eventually failed to clinch presidency because of his poor strategies. 

"The people of South Mugirango must be in government in 2022 by supporting DP Ruto. We cannot continue supporting someone who does not make it at the end of the race. It is time we support a candidate who will win and bring development," stated Osoro.

The lawmaker is serving his first term in office. He is also a member of 'tanga tanga' movement, a political group pushing for DP Ruto's presidential bid.
