President William Ruto is expected in Kisii late Tuesday where he would usher in the New Year 2025.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ruto would be breaking the tradition where other presidents had been hosting the new year fetes in Mombasa.<\/p>\n

He last year ushered in the new year in Nakuru.<\/p>\n

In Kisii, South Mugirango MP Sylvanus Osoro, also Majority Chief Whip, in a tweet, welcomed the head of State to the County Capital.<\/p>\n

“We are looking forward to hosting the President, this is definitely a special gesture to the community at large,” he later told this journalist in a text.<\/p>\n

By late Monday, the Kisii State Lodge was a hive of activity with tents being hosted to accommodate about 1200 invitees.<\/p>\n

Invites to journalists were however, yet to be formalized by Tuesday morning.<\/p>\n

County Commissioner Joseph Kibet said they would be handled by Statehouse itself.<\/p>\n

“What we have are general invites which have already been depleted,” he said.<\/p>\n

Education Cabinet Secretary Migos Ogamba was at hand leading the preparations ahead of Ruto landing in town.<\/p>\n

County Police Commander Charles Kases said all was set for the event.<\/p>\n

Surveillance appears to had been heightened in the streets of Kisii following fresh outburst of protests against a string of abductions in the country.<\/p>\n

Already activists have fingered security agencies for orchestrating the abductions of bloggers critical of Ruto administration.<\/p>\n

Police have since denied the claims.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
