President William Ruto who has pitched tent in the Western region will today attend an interdenominational prayer service in Bungoma.
The service will be held at the Amutala stadium in the Kimilili constituency.
A host of leaders from the region including Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi and National Assembly speaker Moses Wetangula are expected to attend.
Ruto arrived in Bungoma on Thursday.
He is scheduled to commission a series of development projects in various counties across the region this week.
He led the nation in marking the 61st Madaraka Day celebrations held at the Masinde Muliro stadium in Kanduyi.
"Bado tuko area, tutakuwa hapa kesho na mkituchunga vizuri tutakuwa hapa kesho kutwa na mkituangalia vizuri tutakuwa hapa wiki mzima," Ruto said Saturday.
On his part, Deputy President Rigathiu Gachagua will attend a holy mass at Timau catholic church in Buuri, Meru.
He will also be accompanied by several politicians, especially from the Mt Kenya region.
The ongoing debate over the ban on miraa is expected to dominate discussions during the event.
Mombasa Governor Abdulswamad Nassir reiterated his tough stance Saturday against muguka and drug abuse.
He insisted that his administration would continue to wage war against muguka.
“We will not be enslaved to serve the interests of others as our own suffer. If this decision signals my political obituary then so be it; I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees,” he said.
