President William Ruto has reunited with former Cabinet Secretary at the Ministry of Petroleum and Mining John Munyes.

Ruto was with Munyes in Jubilee but he left the then ruling party for UDA, which nominated him for presidency in the 2022 elections.

Munyes was among CSs who resigned from the previous government to venture into politics but lost in the polls.

Munyes, who was a Jubilee candidate, wanted to succeed outgoing Turkana Governor Josphat Nanok, currently State House Deputy Chief of Staff.

Jeremiah Ekamais of Orange Democratic Movement won the election garnering 46.44 per cent of the vote followed by United Democratic Alliance’s John Lodepe (29.18 per cent) and Munyes (23.44 per cent).

Ruto, who was the chief guest at the Turkana Tourism and Cultural Festival, Tobong’u Lore in Lodwar on Friday, offered an olive branch to Munyes during the ceremony.
