Rachel Ruto, Deputy President William Ruto’s wife, has asked Kenyans to forgive Jubilee administration for their failures over the past four years.
Rachel acknowledged that indeed there are some aspects the government performed poorly and had failed to meet Kenyans’ expectations.
She was speaking during a prayer rally at Central Park in Nanyuki on Monday.
She confessed that it was not easy to satisfy the needs of over 40 million Kenyans as they had promised in 2013.
“As God’s servant and wife of Deputy President I plead for your forgiveness on behalf of the government for failing to address some problems facing the country,” she said.
The DP’s wife called for peace as the country approaches the August general election.

“I will take a message of peace to all the counties and I will urge people to desist from inciting Kenyans during the campaigns so that we can have peace before and after the General Election,” she said.
Laikipia Governor Joshua Irungu, Laikipia East MP Mutahi Kimaru and Nairobi-based Bishop Harrison Ng’ang’a of Christian Foundation Fellowship were among the guests at the rally.
She will be leading a series of prayer rallies in a bid to foster peaceful co-existence before and after the August 8 polls.
