In mid-January, Ruto toured three Luo Nyanza counties of Homa Bay, Kisumu and Siaya, making a triumphant entry after Raila asked political leaders from the region to welcome him.
During the presidential campaigns last year, Ruto had promised to ensure constitutional changes to give Kuria its own county.
