He was in the company of Baringo Woman Representative Gladwell Cheruiyot, Kanu Secretary-General Nick Salat, former East African Minister Musa Sirma and a section of MCAs.<\/p>\n<p>Baringo Deputy Governor Jacob Chepkwony and County First Lady Ivy Kiptis also attended the church service.<\/p>\n<p>AIC Kabartonjo, which opened its door to congregants in 1992, was a project of the late President Daniel arap Moi. He initiated the project as a thanksgiving.<\/p>\n<p>The visit by Senator Gideon followed an invitation by the church that had organised a fundraiser to purchase digital equipment.<\/p>\n<p>Gideon, however, said he will personally handle the project<\/p>\n<p>He said the future was bright, warning that they will soon know who is who as the 2022 elections approach.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou are wise and you know where we are headed. The formation has already taken shape. Whatever happens, make sure you are in,\u201d Gideon said.<\/p>\n<p>The senator has hinted that Mudavadi, Kalonzo, Wetang\u2019ula, Raila and Uhuru will join hands. They have since been seen walking together.<\/p>\n<p>The senator called on the people of Baringo to respect leaders and unite in support of Uhuru in his development agenda.<\/p>\n<p>Salat urged the locals to unite and support Gideon, noting they should read between the lines and stay alert.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am here on behalf of the party.
