Ruto defends Imenti State Lodge project

President William Ruto has defended the construction of a State Lodge inside Imenti Forest in Meru County, saying the region deserves such a facility just like other parts of the country. His remarks come days after the Land and Environment Court in Meru halted the construction of the State Lodge, an airstrip and a golf course on a 100-acre piece of land. As Emmanuel Too reports, the President also criticised opposition leaders, expressing confidence that he will defeat them in next year’s polls.
