It’s now emerging that President Kenyatta and his deputy William Ruto are not in good terms. Their friendship started fading immediately the president shook hands with opposition leader Raila Odinga.
A source at Harambee Annex says most of Ruto’s staff aren’t allowed to cross over to Harambee House which is the formal office of the president without appointment. The most worrying part is that there is a lot of infighting within Jubilee you’d think URP is the official opposition and TNA is the government.
It’s a month now since the president called Ruto jamaa wa kutangatanga and Ruto’s men didn’t take the statement lightly. Most of them are heard saying,”wacha Ruto achukue 2022 ndio mambo ianze”.You will even see some of them attacking the president openly even in the presence of Ruto.
A recent statement by the president that lifestyle audit should be conducted didn’t augur well for Ruto’s men, who have come out to defend the DP and suggest that the audit must be backdated to 1963 when Jomo Kenyatta became the founding president. It’s interesting that Uhuru did not say the audit process is targeting his deputy, but Ruto’s right hand men read the signs and responded promptly.
As we approach 2022,a lot will happen.
