Eyebrows raised as SK Macharia holds a secret meeting with president Ruto at State house.
In a photo circulating online, Royal media services founder SK Macharia and Emmanuel Talam, the Press Secretary of the Presidential Communication Service (PCS) are seen handshaking.
Well, this has made eyebrows raised as Sk Macharia was a strong supporter of opposition leader Raila Odinga during the election period, where he publicly declared his support for him.
SK Macharia stated then,” I am exercising my constitutional right to political participation as a responsible and free citizen. My political views and preferences are completely independent of my businesses managed by impartial and competent professionals.”
On his part, Talam confirmed that he only took the photo with the Royal media services founder because of the admiration he has for him.
He revealed that SK Macharia offered him his first job as a journalist at Royal Media Services and through that he was able to build himself from the ground up.
He stated,” I only took a photo with him because I knew him from my days at the Roya Media Services where I began my career.”
Talam further outlined that he was not aware of any talks between president Ruto and the Royal media services guru.
He stated,”I was not privy to the talks, but SK Macharia’s meeting with the President was their personal affair. After all, many people do come to State House.”
