President William Ruto's spouse First Lady Mama Rachel Ruto wrote a touching birthday card to him on Thursday.

Today is the Head of State's 57th birthday.

Mama Rachel mentioned that the President and she are also commemorating their wedding anniversary, calling him her dear friend and confidant.

"Happy Birthday, Bill, my cherished friend and confidant. On this momentous day, as we celebrate your birthday and our wedding anniversary, I am filled with gratitude," Mama Rachel said. 

Mama Rachel mentioned that as she thinks back on their journey together, a Bible verse comes to mind;

"There are three things that will endure - faith, hope, and love - and the greatest of these is love."

"1 Corinthians 13:13 Kwa kweli mambo ni matatu Your love and support have been a true blessing. Thank you for being a constant source of joy and strength," the First Lady said. 

The Africa Inland Church served as the venue for the 1991 wedding of the President and First Lady.

The couple is fortunate to have six children, the most well-known of whom is Charlene Ruto, their daughter.

The young couple's first home was in Dagoretti, where they also welcomed their first kid.

Daniel and Sarah Cheruiyot of Sambut village, Kamagut, Uasin Gishu County, were the parents of Ruto when he was born on December 21, 1966.

The President attends the Africa Inland Church and practices evangelical Christianity.

His time spent selling chicken on the Nairobi-Eldoret-Malaba route served as the impetus for his large chicken farm, which he now owns in his hometown of Sugoi.
