President William Ruto's meeting was once again marred with heckling from crowds during his working tour of Bomet County.
The president was in the Rift Valley county on Saturday, March 16.
Governor Hillary Barchok led other local leaders in welcoming the president who made several stopovers to commission development projects.
In one of the stops, Barchok suffered humiliation at the hands of the locals as he spoke in front of the president.
He had just started to highlight the doings of his county administration when the locals started heckling him.

Barchok's speech was immersed in the noise prompting a reaction from the president.
He took over the function and cautioned the locals against bringing chaos to meetings.
"I don't want chaos in meetings. You are the ones electing these leaders; the MCAs, MPs and even the governor. If someone has not performed please wait for them at the ballot. At the moment we are in a meeting," said the president.
Redeeming himself after the humiliation, Barchok pledged support to the president, dismissing the hecklers as a few individuals paid to dent his profile.
This came days after another Rift Valley governor was heckled by the county's electorate.
Kericho governor Eric Mutai had accompanied the president on another working tour in the tea-growing county.
At stopover, the locals towing on the president reprimanded the governor over his supposed non-performance.
As it were, the president intervened and called for tolerance.
