Fundraising events by politicians are back in full swing, at least if recent activities of senior government officials splashing millions at public events are anything to go by.

President William Ruto yesterday ignited celebrations among congregants of Jesus Winner Ministry in Roysambu, Nairobi, when he promised a personal contribution of Sh20 million towards the church’s construction.

In addition, the President pledged to raise another Sh100 million with the help of his friends and confirmed he would attend the church’s fundraiser at a later date.
