There was drama in Mathioya, Murang’a County on Friday after a man attempted to attack Deputy President William Ruto.
DP Ruto was leaving Rurii Stadium after gracing a youth and women empowerment function when the unidentified man approached and tried to punch him.
But Ruto’s security detail acted swiftly and roughed up the man before pinning him on the ground, according to The Standard.
DP Ruto was seen taking a step backward as the man confronted him angrily and smiled with a gesture after his security neutralized him.
He was then escorted to the car and his convoy left for Othaya, Nyeri where he was set to attend a similar event.
Contacted for comment on the incident, Ruto’s communications secretary David Mugonyi denied claims that the man attempted to attack the Deputy President.
“Deputy President had earlier on been presented with chicken by an elderly woman and the man was following suit with a gift of tea leaves but was stopped by the bodyguards who did not know what he was up to and was later released,” Mugonyi told The Standard.

Nakubaliana na wewe ndugu Imara. Vijana wetu hawatafaidika na siasa; wanataka viongozi ambao watakuza uchumi ili wapate kazi ili kujenga maisha yao.

And you can see the short sighted way of Ruto developing the economy with cheap wheelbarrows. Every body should resist Ruto! He is a deadly and evil man.
Please watch out for this guy.... we may be headed for another blood shed in our country. He know how to calculate his moves and a manipulator.... don’t forget too soon. I don’t trust him.....
No one should forget the cold blood in Ruto’s hands! He killed our people and called them madowadowa (meaning stains in the Rift Valley)!
Folks don’t not be fooled by this beast Ruto! I wish the man floored Ruto and tell him never to come to Muranga again.
The issues of 2007 skirmishes are still raw in people’s heart and mind!
The people of central Kenya are still re-living the senseless acts of Ruto killing women and children inside a Kiambaa church by burning!
I wish this man got a chance to slap the DP hard enough to wake him up!
The guy did not try hard enough! He should have taken an axe and knock off Ruto’s head! We would had something to show for a revenge!
Central Kenya is tired of endless politicking Ruto thinks we eat. That is the reason was beating Ruto! I hope many in central give a good hand shake to this guy for letting Ruto know he is not wanted here. We don’t want a thief in our backyard. Ruto is not the good example we want our boys to see.
It’s time to normalize attacking Kenyan politicians.
Majority of them are looters of public funds.
Does Imara mean only jambazi Ruto's meetings are political?Jambazi Uhuru should stop all meetings including his own as all are the main source COVID-19.I wonder why anybody would pretend not to know that wauaji Wairia,Kamanda,Murathe and SABINA JOY hired goons from Thika,Umo na and Kibera who coursed violence in Murang'a where two people died.That is why IG Nzioka never disciplined his juniors for ignoring orders to arrest thugs Njoro and Wahome.
@Ndugu Morris Menye:
Umesema kweli kabisa. Asante sana. Mikutano hii inasambaza virusi vya COVID-19. Nimewaona watu wengi wamesongamana karibu sana bila kuvaa barakoa (face masks).
Central Kenya know how to uplift themselves they don't need ruto. He should go help his own people
Rais wa Jamhuri ya Kenya Ndugu Uhuru Ngina Kenyatta:
Nakuomba tena umwambie makamu wako ya kwamba bado miaka miwili 2022 wakati ambapo rais mwingine atachaguliwa na wananchi. Hivi majuzi watu wawili walipoteza maisha yao kwa sababu ya siasa mbovu za makamu wako kwenye Kaunti ya Murang'a.
JAMANI: TUMECHOIKA NA SIASA ZA KILA WAKATI
