Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has maintained that his relationship with President Ruto is fine despite weeks of speculation of a rift.
The DP argued that the president had assigned him a lot of work and that the Kenya Kwanza government was in good standing.
"The president and I are working together amicably, we love and respect each other and are doing our work perfectly. He has assigned me lots of duties, some are overwhelming and he has facilitated me to continue with my work. So our government is united and we are working," Gachagua said.
