Prominent city lawyer Donald Kipkorir has questioned President William Ruto’s association with Zimbabwean businessman Wicknell Chivayo, raising concerns over the access the businessman has reportedly been granted to the Head of State.
In a post shared on his X account, Kipkorir questioned why President Ruto has been allowing Chivayo to record him and post the videos on social media.
“Why has our President William Ruto allowed Wicknell Chivayo, a man with dubious distinction to video record him?” Kipkorir asked.
The lawyer claimed that Chivayo’s recordings gave the public a glimpse of Ruto’s offices at State House, his farm in Kilgoris and his private vehicle.
Kipkorir argued that the level of access granted to Chivayo was unusual and could raise questions about both security and the ethical considerations surrounding the President’s association with him.
“No other Kenyan has such access & leeway. Doesn’t this unparalleled access by a convicted fraudster raise both moral & security issues?” he stated.
Kipkorir went further to challenge Chivayo’s reputation, arguing that he should not be regarded as an entrepreneur.
“Chivayo isn’t an entrepreneur but a fraudster who has captured failed Zimbabwe,” the lawyer said.
