Africa-Press – Kenya. President-elect William Ruto has welcomed Tiaty MP William Kamket to Kenya Kwanza.
Ruto said he is ready to work with him and other leaders toward a better economy.
“Working together is imperative for the full realization of the economic objectives we promised the people of Kenya. I am pleased to welcome you,” he said.
Kamket was elected on a Kanu party ticket that is affiliated with the Azimio La Umoja coalition led by Raila Odinga.
After the declaration of William Ruto as President-elect, Kamket toned down on his attack on the outgoing deputy president and pledged to work with him.
The MP said once Ruto is sworn in as the fifth president, he will be among the many leaders who will make frequent visits to the State House.
“Some people will get shocked by this,” he said.
During his campaigns, Ruto called on the Pokot and Ilchamus pastoral communities in Baringo county to come on board and join his camp to form the next government.
Kamket praised Ruto, saying he won fairly although he received fewer votes from Tiaty, which heavily supported Azimio leader Raila Odinga.
“I can personally attest the votes were tallied at Chemolingot, my home, turf, were the same reflected at the national IEBC tallying centre at Bomas of Kenya. There was no rigging whatsoever,” he said.
