Traditionally, the Vice President is tasked with inviting the President to speak at official functions. However, after other leaders had delivered their speeches, Ruto deviated from this protocol and asked Gachagua to make brief remarks before addressing the audience. “Before I make some observations, I have listened carefully to the leaders who have spoken accordingly. But let me ask my deputy to make some observations so that I can conclude,” Ruto said. This break from protocol was witnessed by several dignitaries, including former Prime Minister Raila Odinga and Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka, who were present at the event. The event marked the passage of the IEBC Amendment Bill, 2024, which will pave the way for the appointment of new Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) commissioners.
