President William Ruto has come to the defence of his deputy Rigathi Gachagua and refuted claims that he had set him up for a fall by delegating to him the responsibility of dismantle cartels in the agriculture sector.
The President said the claims were unfounded and should be ignored as his administration was focused on fixing the economy and service delivery.
