Deputy President William Ruto made a surprise visit to the ailing son of Bahati MP Kimani Ngunjiri on Sunday morning, February 7.
The legislator, a strong DP Ruto ally, took to social media to thank the DP for the kind gesture of taking time to visit his son Kinyanjui.
"I wish to thank H.E The Deputy President Dr. William Samoei Ruto for visiting my son Kinyanjui in hospital today morning. Thank you for the encouragement and prayers," read the post.
In the photos seen by Kenyans.co.ke, Kinyanjui is on a ventilator support. The post by Ngunjiri garnered lots of engagement online with netizens wishing Kinyanjui a quick recovery.
"Quick recovery to your dearest son, to DP, thanks for finding time.
"My thoughts and prayers are with you today. Your son will get cured.
"Wishing him quick recovery, be strong Hon Kimani. May the hand of God that heals touch him," some of the comments read.
The Legislator has often kept his family off the limelight. Ngunjiri is married to Ruth Muthoni Kimani and has four children; two girls and two boys.
After the visit, the DP proceeded to a Sunday service meeting at the ACK All Saints Cathedral Church Parish in Kilifi South, Kilifi County.
