National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang’ula has defended President William Ruto's adherence to a re-election agreement with Western leaders from the 2022 general election. Wetang’ula responded to opposition claims that Ruto did not fulfill the pact, which promised the Western region 30 percent of government appointments and development projects. He asserted that the opposition is spreading falsehoods for political gain and claimed that the Western region has benefited from the Kenya Kwanza government, despite not receiving full support.
