THE CONSTANT ELEMENT : RUTO


It's now clear to us that there is a rift in the government. There are two groups opposing each other, one being led by the President while the other is led by his deputy.

MPs allied to the President led by Majority Leader Kimani Ichungwah and Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro have been attacking the DP without mercy. This has fuelled the presumed tensions between the president and his deputy. On the other side, those allied to the DP have been angered by attacks and abuse levelled against their leader. They have threatened to walk out from the government if respct is not upheld in the rulling party. Nyeri Governor Mutahi Kahiga has been vehemently defending his DP . Githunguri MP Gathoni Wamuchomba has also came into the defence of the DP saying that the second in command should be respected.


Both of them have started to strategize for 2027. Dp Rigathi Gachagua has toned down on his "matusi" techniques and is now embracing those in opposition.

On the other side, the folding of the ANC by Musalia Mudavadi is a sign that Ruto wants to have other alternatives come 2027.

Now ,let's talk about Ruto. He was "selected" mainly because of his disagreement with his boss Uhuru Kenyatta. He claimed that he was being sidelined by the government and this earned him sympathy votes from both the people and the IEBC.

The same Ruto also fell out with Raila Odinga the "nusu mkate' government when he was involved in a scandal when he served the Ministry of Agriculture.

In 2007, he also had a falling out his his mentor Daniel Moi when he was the Mp for Eldoret North. He had warned Moi to keep off the KANU politics since he was retired.

All those scenarios have left me wondering, why is he the constant in each fall out ?

His recent fall out with Rigathi Gachagua has made me realize one thing, the "PORK" is the problem and has a questionable character.

Falling out with Jakom of all the people, and then betraying Attorney General Justin Muturi when he kidnnapped his son just because he opposed the Housing levy just confirms that.
In as much as he always shirks responibility of the previous government, he should also call himself for a meeting.
