Kenyan President William Ruto has had a bad week, following public embarrassment when a Catholic bishop announced that his cash donation to a local church last Sunday would be refunded over ‘ethical concerns’.
The decision by the Archbishop of Nairobi, Philip Anyolo, came days after a stinging statement by the influential lobby of Catholic bishops accusing President Ruto’s government of human rights abuses, punitive taxes, corruption, and ‘a culture of lies’.
