The Mt Kenya visit comes a week after the Kenya Kwanza team traversed Nairobi county popularising the formation and its candidates.

Speaking in Kirinyaga, Ruto urged his supporters to reject the ODM leader, terming him as the enemy of the people.

He said Raila was in 2013 and 2017 on record attacking the Jubilee government and thus he should not be trusted.
