Ruto presides over closing ceremony of Women of Faith Congress in Machakos

President William Ruto presided over the closing ceremony of the Women of Faith Congress organized by the African Brotherhood Church (ABC) in Machakos County. The head of state attended the final session of the congress held at Scott Christian University. Thousands of women worshippers joined Ruto for the event, which focused on prayer, fellowship, and spiritual reflection.

Several leaders allied to the president, including Mwingi East MP Mwengi Mutuse, were present to support Ruto's bid for a second term. This visit comes as Ruto continues to court the church ahead of the 2027 General Election, capitalizing on the church's support during the 2022 presidential election. Mutuse led the members in rallying support for Ruto.

The Friends Church, also known as the Quakers, was another church that Ruto hosted at State House, Nairobi. The Friends Church is a large and influential Christian denomination in Western Kenya, with a strong presence in several counties and sponsoring several educational institutions.
