Kapseret Member of Parliament Oscar Sudi has told off a section of Kenyans who have been asking about the whereabouts of Deputy President William Ruto.
The DP has been missing in political action for several days now, something political pundits said was not usual.
DP Ruto has been known to be energetic, with the ability to address up to 10 rallies within a day, in several consecutive days.
But since the last joint rally in Kirinyaga, the second in command has not appeared in any other political rally, with only his newfound political friends Musalia Mudavadi of ANC and Ford Kenya’s Moses Wetangula gracing the recent rallies.
His absence had caused speculations on social media, with some bloggers claiming the DP had flown to Dubai for medical reasons.
The claims have since been dismissed, with the vocal Kapseret MP saying Ruto, just like any other human being needed some rest away from politics.
Sudi, however, confirmed that the DP who is eyeing the presidency was in Dubai.
He shared a brief video of the two together in a hotel, and photos of a visit they made to Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria.
Kuria has been receiving treatment in Dubai for months since he had an accident with leg warmers.
“Many were asking whereabouts of the Deputy President William Ruto, he is also a human being who needs some rest away from politics. We paid a visit to our brother Moses Kuria who is recovering well in Hospital, Dubai,” Sudi posted on his official Facebook page.
It, however, remains unclear when the DP will be jetting back to continue with the tours that he is using to popularize his presidential bid.
Alongside his UDA lieutenants and the Kenya Kwanza partners, Ruto is scheduled for several tours to the Coast, and he is likely to be there after taking a much-needed break.
