A new opinion poll released by Infotrak shows President William Ruto leading the field of potential 2027 presidential contenders with 32 percent overall approval, ahead of a crowded pack of Opposition figures.

The survey found Ruto's support slightly higher among male respondents (34 percent) than female respondents (30 percent). He is trailed by Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka at 13 percent, former ODM Secretary-General Edwin Sifuna at 12 percent, and former Cabinet Secretary Dr Fred Matiang'i, also at 12 percent.
