Mama Rachel Ruto, on the other hand, has taken to Twitter to ask her husband to pay his debts since Argentina won the match.
“I want to join the rest of the world in congratulating the Argentina National Football Team, Captained by Lionel Messi, for winning the 2022 World Cup tournament.
“Wear your three stars with pride! Bill, pay your bill!” Mama Rachel posted online.
The Kenyan president has gone ahead and stated that he will pay for his bet, despite his reservations about the game’s nature.
For example, he is still unsure whether the bet was still valid after 90 minutes or whether penalty shootouts are included in a bet.
