Mr Ruto further affirmed that the government would not spare politicians who are involved in any kind of incitement and violence.
"All Kenyans must respect the rule of law and abide by the Constitution. Violence, anarchy or chaos will not earn any leader any position in this country," Mr Ruto noted.
He also called on every Kenyan to reject all those spreading hatred, incitement, ethnicity, confusion, and division among them.
“Kenyans should say no to hatred and resist violence, anarchy and reject those who want us to fight so that they can achieve their selfish interest,” the Deputy President stated.
He was accompanied by Governor Ferdinand Waititu(Kiambu), MPs Kimani Ichungwa (Kikuyu), John Kiarie (Dagoretti South), Moses Kuria (Gatundu South), Jude Jomo (Kiambu Town) and Jonah Mburu (Lari).
