William Ruto Claims He Spent Less Than KSh 10m to Travel to US: "I am Very Responsible"
==========
President William Ruto claimed that he spent less than KSh 10 million to travel to the United States on a private jet, refuting reports that claimed the trip cost KSh 200 million. Ruto stated that he was a responsible leader who lived within the country's means and that he was not a mad man. He opted for a chartered Boeing 737-700 business jet for his four-day visit, which can fly nonstop for 10 to 12 hours. The Abu Dhabi-based airline that provided the charter services charges KSh 2.4 million per hour. The total cost of Ruto's trip was estimated to have crossed the KSh 200 million mark. The reports of Ruto's trip costs sparked a debate among Kenyans, with some defending his choice and stating that a flight on the national carrier, Kenya Airways, would have cost more.
