Deputy President William Ruto's remarks that he has never been involved in corruption continue to elicit mixed reactions among Kenyans.
In a televised interview with NTV's Mark Masai, Ruto said that all the wealth he has amassed while serving in public office, none can be traced to graft.
"My friends, William Ruto has never, ever been involved in any form of corruption, either as Member of Parliament or today serving as Deputy President and I give my pledge that I will not," he said on Sunday.
The sentiments have caused a stir online, some Kenyans taking his word and others accusing him of 'lying'.
Here are some comments as posted on various social media platforms:
Fred Okango said: "We will give it to him and say that for now there is nothing corruption-related."
"I'm going to believe him because of the joke on us Kenyans who foolishly think he isn't a pathological liar," said Ben JN Kerero.
"Hata mimi...I'll deny anything," said Frank.
Paul Gayo posted: "Worry NOT! Mr DP you're going straight to heaven. Ama namna gani?"
"When the DP comes and says he has never been corrupt and will never be, that you have to give to him because of his confidence," said Arnold Maliba.
Mzalendo Mngwana remarked: "DP please note even Jesus was crucified by sinners. People will never be kind to you. We are all bad."
A tweep identified as The Charles posted: "A pathological liar cannot tell the difference between a truth and a lie. To them, their lie is the truth."

John Chege said: "Give this guy a break for Christ sake."
Shire Mohamed Mohamud posted: "But DP how did you get this massive wealth surely?"
And George Munai had this to add: "Whoever has a contrary opinion should opinion should report at the #DCI Kenya."
