Kenyans have caught a rare glimpse of President William Ruto’s private residence in Narok County, after the Head of State hosted several senior Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) leaders at the property.
The residence attracted public interest after photographs from the gathering emerged, offering a view of the compound where Ruto reportedly held discussions with the visiting political delegation.
The meeting took place following the President’s political engagements in Kisii County, where he had been accompanied by several leaders from different political backgrounds.
Among those who reportedly attended the gathering were Mombasa Governor Abdulswamad Nassir, Homa Bay Governor Gladys Wanga and Cabinet Secretary Hassan Joho.
Ruto’s close aide, Farouk Kibet, was also present during the engagement, bringing together influential figures associated with the ruling administration and the ODM party.
Although the meeting attracted attention because of the political personalities involved, the specific issues discussed were not immediately disclosed. No official statement was issued detailing the agenda or indicating whether the leaders reached any agreements.
The photographs also gave Kenyans an opportunity to see part of the President’s private compound, which rarely features in public engagements compared with State House and other official government venues.
The gathering comes at a time when political leaders are increasingly holding consultations and building relationships ahead of the 2027 General Election.
The presence of senior ODM officials at Ruto’s residence has consequently sparked interest among Kenyans, particularly regarding the relationship between the party and the broad-based government arrangement.
Ruto has previously defended his cooperation with ODM, describing the partnership as one based on mutual benefits, equality and the goal of promoting an inclusive government.
However, it remains unclear whether the Kilgoris meeting focused on political strategy, development matters or other issues of mutual interest.
