DP Ruto Almost Sheds Tears as He Narrates His Struggles at Prayer Meeting

Deputy President William Ruto had an emotional speech during a prayer breakfast meeting convened by him and his wife at their residence in Karen.

The meeting brought together the clergy, church leaders, and members of the Kenya Kwanza Alliance.

The group had an intense prayer for the Kenya Kwanza Coalition even as they asked God to grant the team victory.

When he was called to speak,  the DP almost cried as he narrated the struggles they have faced in their bid for the presidency. 

"Let me say we are truly grateful as a team because we have seen God's hand in this journey. The far that God has brought us and the many issues that we have overcome we have seen the hand of God. 

"Along the journey, we have come to appreciate that men can let you down but God wouldn't. We have come to the realization of trusting God because human beings can let you down," Ruto stated. 

The DP called for peace even as he thanked the religious leaders for gracing his prayer meeting.

He mentioned tha Kenya is at a critical moment that needs the intervention of all stakeholders to be able to have peace.

"We know the moments and we know the times and we know the challenges and I requested we have this moment of prayer together because of the weight of the issues that we are faced with in these last days before we go to the vote," Ruto said.

"We have many schedules but the bible reminds us to seek the kingdom of God first. Thank you for coming to pray with my team and me. I underestimated this meeting but it has turned out to be something I never imagined," the DP said as he fought back tears.
