Political analyst Herman Manyora has advised President William Ruto to stop his frequent visits to counties.
In a statement on Monday, August 28, Manyora noted that the Head of State’s frequent tours are draining county resources.
The political commentator pointed out that it is expensive to move President Ruto across counties adding that it also interferes with the normal working schedule.
“Thank you for visiting our Mulembe nation. But from a loyal subject: Consider putting these visits and launches to a stop. They are becoming too much and a drain on our meager resources. Your Excellency, moving the president around is costly,” said Manyora.
He added, “Your Excellency, it may interest you to know that all work stops when you’re around. Like the entire western region shut for all the time you were there.”
