Ledama Ole Kina & Governor Ntutu Clash in Church Service Attended by Ruto
On Sunday, there was a dispute between Narok Governor Patrick Ole Ntutu and Senator Ledama Ole Kina at an Interdenominational Prayer Service that was also attended by President Ruto.
The two leaders engaged in heated exchanges over conflicts arising from differing opinions regarding a disputed area within Kilgoris.
Ole Kina stated that the tension regarding the border disagreement between Uasin Gishu County and Narok had subsided due to the presence of security forces deployed two weeks before the President’s arrival.
However, Ntutu asserted that the county government was addressing the issue without the Senator’s awareness, as this was the first instance of him mentioning the land matter.
“The small matter you heard the Senator speak about between Uasin Gishu and Siria we have intervened as the County Government, and it is not true that it has been calm only because you have come here, we have many programs to solve the matter,” stated Ntutu
He additionally urged the Narok senator to frequent the area and depart from Nairobi to gain insight into the disputed border’s historical background.

“My request would be to you Ledama to come and learn the history of this land, so that you don’t just complain without enough information as this is the first time you have mentioned it, come from Nairobi even when you are wearing that Shuka and we can discuss the matter stated Ntutu.
The Governor observed that the Senator was unaware and disconnected from the issue, thus refusing to allow him to address it.
Apart from delving into Narok politics, Senator Ole Kina also censured Governors, alleging that instead of focusing on the development of their counties, they were primarily concerned with enriching themselves.
He criticized the central government for its failure to raise the allocation to County governments, highlighting how this shortfall was impeding development at the local level.
During an independent occasion held at Kapsabet Boys High School, Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua emphasized his intent to address individuals causing disturbances during President William Ruto’s recent gatherings.
He mentioned that he planned to gather all the leaders implicated in the heckling to discuss how to proceed and prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future.
