Siaya: Clergy call for peace between Ruto and his deputy

Siaya church leaders are calling on President William Ruto and his deputy, Rigathi Gachagua to engage each other and cool down the rising political temperatures in the country.

Speaking in Siaya town today after the forum meeting, the leaders, led by their chairman, Archbishop James Opiyo Anyango called on politicians across the political divide to engage in talks that can unify the country.

Archbishop Opiyo called on Gachagua to seek a private meeting with Ruto to address issues he thinks are not going right.

The organising secretary of the forum, Bishop Wilfred Amollo said as Christians, the two should be at the forefront of championing dialogue.

“We would want the two to come together and dialogue in a peaceful environment,” Amollo said.

He said the country was witnessing too much politicking yet elections were three years away.
