President William Ruto on Thursday lost his cool during a media engagement at Kitui State Lodge after a journalist questioned the purpose of his visit to Ukambani.
The Head of State, who is on an official state tour of the region, was asked whether his presence in Kitui was politically motivated or purely for development purposes.
Visibly irritated by the question, President Ruto sharply responded, terming it “a stupid question.”
He went on to assert that as the President of Kenya, he has the right to visit any part of the country for development matters and not necessarily for political reasons.
“That is a stupid question. I am the President of Kenya. I can visit any county in this country to launch or inspect development projects. It has nothing to do with politics,” Ruto retorted, drawing mixed reactions from the journalists present.TO READ MORE, TAP HERE.
