Narok Senator Ledama Ole Kina has discredited Deputy President William Ruto's mega political rally held at Ole Ntimama Stadium in Narok on Saturday, May 28.
This was after the second in command was accorded a massive reception when he landed in the region largely perceived as Raila Odinga's stronghold.
Through a message on his Twitter page, the visibly agitated ledama poked holes into Ruto's rally claiming his team had imported supporters from other regions of the country into the Narok rally. He went ahead to post photos of school buses he claimed were used to ferry people, saying they do not have schools with such names in Narok.
He, however, sarcastically thanked Ruto and his team for taking good business to Narok county people during their rally.
"Why ferry people from all over the country. We don’t have schools with such names in Narok County …. Crowds do not translate into votes sir. Yet again thanks for the business today in Narok," stated the ODM senator.

This is not the first time Ledama is criticizing and questioned Ruto's massive reception in his Narok county. In March, the senator also accused the Kenya Kwanza Alliance of ferrying people from as far Bomet County to attend the rally during UDA's gubernatorial aspirant Patrick Ole Ntutu's launch ceremony.
"I see Narok Olopiri village has been turned into small Kericho and Bomet! Pole sana ndugu, those transported there will not vote in August 2022," read Ledama's tweet in March.
However, Kapseret MP Oscar Sudi quickly reacted to his claims, sarcastically asking him how they managed to get all ear-lopped people from Kericho to Bomet in time.
"Tuliwaleta tukawatoboa masikio saa ngapi," posed Sudi in Swahili
