Deputy President William Ruto has admitted that he owns shares in the controversial Weston Hotel along Lang’ata Road.

Speaking during an interview on Citizen on Tuesday, the Deputy President said that his admission was “a good confession that sets the record straight,”

Ruto however denied allegations that he is involved in the land – grabbing scandal plaguing the hotel stating that he has no reason to explain himself over the Langata Primary School controversies because he is not part of the scam.

“Those claiming that Weston Hotel has grabbed Langata Road Pry School land should go to court and say so,” Ruto said

“Weston Hotel is different from Langata Road Primary School and the two cannot be linked,” he added.

Ruto further said that the Moi Teaching Hospital scandal is a creation “of friends of the opposition as well as the Maize Scandal.”

“Wikileaks named Raila Odinga as the architect of the Maize scandal” he added.

The Deputy President said he learnt of the planned upgrade from the hospital’s CEO Dr John Kibosia

“I invited the CEO of MTRH to come to my office to explain why the hospital needed government’s support to upgrade,” he said.

Ruto said the Sh17 billion meant to upgrade the hospital can build a fully equipped referral hospital and teaching facility.

“Eldoret has no County Hospital. By buying new Land to build MTRH we have solved that issue” he said.

The DP said the Jubilee government is not sparing any public official accused of graft.

“There will be no Goldenberg and there will be no Anglo Leasing under Jubilee,” Ruto said.

He said that the government has not in any way interfered with operations at the Ethics and Anti – Corruption Commission stating that the EACC’s challenges date back to previous regimes.

“EACC, the office of the DPP and the Judiciary are independent institutions that must have to deal with graft,” Ruto said.

He added that the EACC commissioners were removed through a constitutional process stating that the government did not force any of the officials to resign.

“We will follow the due process in fighting corruption and appointment of new commissioners to EACC,” Ruto said.
