Deputy President William Ruto has once again told off those “uncomfortable”with his tithing habits.
Speaking in Machakos during a fundraiser in aid of Africa Inland Church (AIC) Katisaa, the DP said that he will not be lectured about what to do.
“We have read the Bible and we have understood what we are called to do, nobody should be forced to give to God. Someone should not give us lectures on what to do,” said Ruto.

He also vowed to have more major factories in operation so as to address the unemployment problem especially among the youth.
He also warned the directors in charge against crippling the factory as was the case with their predecessors.
“These factories and industries we are revamping will help address the challenge of youth and unemployment because I know you will get jobs here. We have done this in others of the country and we will continue doing so.
I want our directors to know that last time it was your predecessors who collapsed this factory, please ensure that the money that we have invested in this process benefits farmers and Kenyans at large. Be loyal to these farmers who have trusted you with those positions,” the president said.
