The incident started when the aspirant attempted to address the students, who were visibly displeased with the speech.
The students interrupted the speech with chants of “Ruto Must Go,” signaling their dissatisfaction with the current administration.
Reports further alleged that the protest appeared to have been planned, as the crowd quickly gained momentum, becoming more vocal with each passing moment.
