elijah manangoi and ruto

Over the weekend, Deputy president, William Ruto's youngest son, Larry Lagat, had a moment to savor after he was pictured hanging out with 1,500M runner, Elijah Manang'oi.

The two rubbed shoulders during the Kenya Police Service Cross Country Championships, which was held at Ngong racecourse on Saturday.

The younger Ruto spotted a sporty look with an all black, jogging suit to match the annual event.
