Deputy President William Ruto and Azimio la Umoja leader Raila Odinga are in fresh trouble after electoral agency boss Wafula Chebukati asked the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Noordin Haji to investigate claims that they have been using public resources in their presidential campaigns ahead of the August 9 elections.
Mr Chebukati wrote to the DPP after the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) received a written complaint from Thirdway Alliance Party leader Ekuru Aukot in which he accused the two political honchos of using state resources to gain undue advantage over other presidential contestants in the forthcoming general election.
