Deputy President William Ruto's daughter June Chepchirchir is said to be holding a senior rank of the second counselor in the Kenyan embassy in Rome, Italy.
A source within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs while speaking to a local daily stated that Ms Chepchirch rise to the top was drastic even though she holds a degree in International Communication.
Alluding to this factor, National Super Alliance (NASA) Co-principal Moses Wetangula accused the Jubilee government of making the unilateral appointment of children and relatives of the president and his deputy to Kenya's foreign mission abroad with no qualifications other than Kinship.
This new revelation comes in awake of criticism from leaders of the ruling Jubilee party including the Deputy President over the nominations of Kennedy Kalonzo -the eldest son of Wiper Leader Kalonzo Musyoka to the East African Legislative Assembly (EALA)
DP Rutto accused the Wiper leader of nepotism, a position supported by the Leader of Majority in Parliament Aden Duale who vowed to that Kalonzo Junior's name does not pass on the floor of parliament.
Speaking in Kilgoris County on Thursday during a public rally to drum up support for Jubilee, the DP stated that it was wrong for Kalonzo to nominate his son and that the Opposition should be a shamed of their acts and stop lecturing Jubilee on tribalism or Nepotism
"Mr Odinga’s elder brother Oburu Oginga this week withdrew his candidature. “They are shameless. One proposes the brother, another the son, and nothing would have stopped them from recommending their wives,” Mr Ruto lamented
