Ruto’s meeting with Trans Nzoia MCAs comes days after Governor George Natembeya held a similar meeting.
Natembeya, in a post on his Facebook page said his meeting was meant to set the agenda for 2026.
“Today, I held a fruitful consultative meeting with the honourable Members of the County Assembly (MCAs) of Trans Nzoia County to set an agenda for 2026,” Natembeya said in a post dated January 2, 2025.

Some of government-allied politicians led by Nandi Senator Samson Cherargey have repeatedly called for Natembeya’s impeachment.
