The ADC was conspicuously missing in many images President William Ruto was taken in the Nanyuki retreat.


Firebrand Lawyer Miguna Miguna has disparaged Citizen TV Journalist Seth Olale for asking about the whereabouts of President William Ruto's aide de camp.

This was after the journalist shared an image of president William Ruto and his cabinet members at a retreat in Mombasa and questioned why the ADC was nowhere to be seen.

The ADC was conspicuously missing in many images President William Ruto was taken in the Nanyuki retreat.

"But where’s the Aide Chief de Camp?" Olale possed.

In a rejoinder, Miguna lashed out at the journalist accusing him of focusing on "primitivity and mediocrity".

The lawyer further said that time is long overdue for presidents to ease walking with ADCs from one point to another.

"This is not journalism, Mr Olale. Yours is now mediocrity. Why are you comfortable with the primitivity of having an adult walk behind another person like a slave? The age of aide de camps hovering around presidents is long gone," Miguna tweeted in response.

The President had a five-day retreat with senior executive members of his cabinet.

The meeting was to outline the Kenya Kwanza Government plan and discuss a way of implementing it.

Through the discussions and even engagement on the sidelines, the President was without his ADC.

ADC more often accompany the president to almost each and every function as it is with the previous president.
