The 25-year-old is a football lover and would undoubtedly bring Money Fest to Uasin Gishu county for the big day.
Did Money Fest entertain Uasin Gishu residents?
The vehicle, which made headlines for breaking traffic rules and allegedly evading the mandatory inspection by the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA), was spotted in Eldoret and Ruto’s upcountry home in Sugoi.
A video posted on X showed Money Fest putting on a lights show in Eldoret city.
The matatu was the centre of attraction, with its distinct LED lights lighting the night and music bumping.
A massive crowd of onlookers smiled around the PSV, recording the scene with their phones. The vehicle also visited Ruto's village in Sugoi. Scenic images captured the matatu parked near road signage showing the location.
Did Money Fest undergo NTSA inspection?
Earlier, George bowed to pressure and surrendered the Money Fest matatu for NTSA inspection.
A video shared by famous disc jockey VDJ Jones showed the newly-acquired matatu at NTSA's Likoni Road Inspection Centre.
In the clip, the head-turning multi-million matatu that plies Ngong Road was in a queue alongside other vehicles.
Money Fest's driver defended George, saying the souped-up vehicle was financed with a loan.
The driver accused critics of spreading propaganda against its acquisition and registration, saying the owner has a right to engage in matatu business.
He disclosed that Money Fest benefits at least 100 people, and George cannot be admonished for investing in an industry that employs the youth.
Speaking to TUKO.co.ke, Matwana Matatu Culture founder Brian Wanyama urged all matatu investors to follow rules.
