Ruto made his intentions of calling President Kenyatta known while speaking  at his Karen home.

“I will shortly be putting a call to my good friend President Uhuru Kenyatta. We haven’t spoken in months. I will call him shortly so that we can have a conversation on the process of transition. I know he worked hard in his way but the people of Kenya have made their decisions,” Ruto said in part.

“When I decided to support Uhuru Kenyatta I did not give him any conditions. I take no offense that he chose to support someone else. We will continue being friends; we look to take Kenya to the next level.”
