Friday August 2, 2013 - A section of  Kipsigis Myoot Council of Elders have said embattled Bomet Governor, Isaac Rutto, is free to work with anybody he wants as long as he is fighting for the interests of Kenyans.

In a meeting held at Afri Tech Teachers College in Chepalungu on Thursday, the elders led by the Council’s Bomet County chapter chairman, Richard Tonui, asked MPs to stop the public spat against Rutto.

The elders also unanimously agreed to support the mooted coalition between Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) and United Republic Party (URP) saying Luo and Kalenjin communities have been working together since the day of their forefathers.

The elders also condemned the recent attack on Governor Rutto, saying Rutto was expressing his democratic right which is enshrined in the constitution.

The leaders also said they will meet all MPs from the Kipsigis community who have attacked Rutto, saying it is against the customs of the Kipsigis community.
