PRESIDENT UHURU’S MESSAGE TO JUNE RUTO AFTER SNUBBING HER WEDDING.

Yesterday was the wedding of Deputy President William Ruto’s daughter, June. The plush ceremony was held in Karen and was attended by the high and mighty in Kenya’s political landscape.

But there was one notable absentee, President Uhuru Kenyatta. Many noted the curious absence of the head of state at the celebration of his second in command’s daughter.

The obvious speculation was that the two leaders have been having a long-simmering war that has played out among their ranks in the Jubilee party.

“Imagine President Uhuru missing June Ruto’s wedding because of politics. Congratulations June, you made a stunning bride. Joy and Happiness and will have an address in your home,” commented Nairobi politician Karen Nyamu.

But that isn’t the case. In a personal message to Ruto, President Kenyatta promised to visit the family and the newlyweds after the Madaraka Day celebrations.

“Pongezi tena…you’ll tell them, right? Pongezi sana, nitawaona labda nikitoka huko Kisumu,” the Head of State told his deputy.

They both left Parliament Buildings after the National Prayer Breakfast headed to Karen but as Ruto went to his home along Koitobos Road, Uhuru was presiding over a graduation ceremony at the National Defence College.

12km away from the wedding venue, President Kenyatta awarded a charter to the National Defence College as a fully-fledged university.

The bride wore an off white column and sheath wedding dress at the glamorous wedding with the groom wearing a blue suit and matching bowtie while DP Ruto rocked a black suit with a white shirt and black bowtie and his wife Rachel donned a pink dress.
