Saturday, July 17, 2021 -Deputy President William Ruto has asked Kikuyus not to blindly follow the proposed merger between Jubilee and ODM Parties.
Addressing mourners on Friday July 16 during burial of Eliud Buku who is the father to his aide Munyori Buku, DP Ruto told them that Raila Odinga is yet to understand the economic challenges of Mt. Kenya and it will be disastrous to allow him to lead this nation.
“Mr. Odinga cannot even know that there is a village road in Mt Kenya that needs to be rerouted to serve the region better.
“Do you think we woke up at 3 AM to elect a President to go and unite the people of NASA? No! You (Mt Kenya residents) cannot even belong to ODM and that is very clear,” Ruto said.
The Deputy President seized the opportunity to thank residents of Kiambaa and Muguga for proving to the whole country that the Hustlers can one day have a say in the politics of the nation.
“Kiambaa and Muguga by-elections were friendly matches and people from both regions acted wisely. Voters from both areas showed us that they had business with both our present Jubilee party and the future UDA party. In Kiambaa we won by 510 votes while in Muguga we lost with 27 votes,” Ruto stated.
Ruto went ahead to troll Odinga for being a contestant who never accepts defeat and cautioned him to accept any outcome in 2022 general election. He said peace in the country was a requirement that every leader must be prepared to preach during elections period.
“The problem’s arise when Raila refuses to accept defeat and goes ahead to swear himself in,” Ruto took a swipe at the former Prime Minister.
Ruto and ODM Party boss Mr. Odinga could face-off in the next general election slated 2022.
