Deputy President William Ruto was left in tears after a poem was read by a young girl during his Kenya Kwanza tour in Nakuru county.
Ruto who was addressing the crowd in Kuresoi could not help it as the teenager Doreen Cheptoo, alias Chibudi Chibude delivered her poem dubbed 'My dear President to be'.
The poem praised and urged Ruto to 'arise and shine for the glory of God' as he seeks the state's top seat ahead of the August 9 polls.
