"There is a lot of political intolerance. As soon as the shoe was thrown at President Ruto, social media erupted with comments—some so indifferent it seemed people wouldn’t have minded if more had been done. Politically, we have not matured. But that does not give anyone the ticket to treat the President so casually, or risk embarrassing or even hurting him. Had he been injured, we’d be having a very different conversation today." - Kipruto Arap Kirwa, Former Agriculture Cabinet Minister
