Charlene Ruto, daughter of President William Ruto, has announced she has forgiven Webster Ochora Elijah, the man accused of impersonating her by authoring a book under her name. She will settle the matter out of court after Ochora expressed remorse through her lawyers, Kachapin & Company Advocates.

• Charlene Ruto emphasized her decision was rooted in strength and a belief in restorative justice, viewing Ochora's accountability as a sign of character.
• Her initial legal action was not personal, but aimed at confronting the growing normalization of online abuse and destruction of reputations through digital platforms.
• The case is expected to be mentioned in court on August 19, 2025, where both parties will formally record a mutual settlement.
