EMBARRASSMENT AS RUTO’S CAR RUNS OUT OF FUEL DURING CAMPAIGN

The custom vehicle featuring six wheels on three axles grabbed headlines for its intimidating exterior appearance but has proven to be mechanically problematic for Ruto’s camp.

On Saturday, July 30, a video doing rounds on social media depicted the monster pickup truck with a broken axle.

The footage indicated that one of the two rear axles had been displaced, making it unable for the vehicle to move as the two rear wheels on one side touched.

The vehicle’s previously picture-perfect bodywork was also damaged significantly. The person recording the footage said that the damage was caused by overcrowding.

“Wamevunja bana. Imekata studs. Watu walikuwa wengi (They have broken it. The wheel studs are damaged. It was overloaded).”
Here is what a section of Kenyans had to say:

Opash Johnny:

“It’s normal for car breakdown.”

Kevin Nyabiba:

“How many more time will it have mechanical problems before it’s disposed?”
Oduor Owiti:

“Whoever donated it is a master in PR.”
David Muriithi:

“The safety our DP is paramount. Whoever is in-charge of his transport just ensure it’s either mechanically sound and if not, replaced with one befitting his status.”
Nyto Mwangi:

“Scrap metal dealers are smiling.”
