Monday , July 5, 2021 -It has emerged that most of the big shots from Mt Kenya want Raila Odinga to take over from President Uhuru Kenyatta when he is done with his term.
Sources have intimated that most of the tycoons from the mountain prefer a Raila presidency as opposed to any other person. They have therefore been piling pressure on the president to front Odinga whom they claim has their interests at heart.
Insiders have revealed the intrigues taking place that will finally see Odinga run for the top seat under the billionaires’ blessings with a promise to be deputized by former Gatanga legislator Peter Kenneth.
The happenings are coming barely two years after Deputy President William Ruto with his allies ranted about the presence of the the so called ‘Deep State’ now interfering with the next elections.
Ruto stated that there were heavy plans to make sure his ambitions to succeed Mr. Kenyatta don’t come to fruition.
This cabal of tycoons has been working tirelessly behind the scenes to push Odinga through so that he can take over from Mr. Kenyatta in 2022.
The Peoples Daily of Monday July 5 detailed a report on this matter in which it revealed why Odinga might finally be supported by the Mt. Kenya Region as opposed to any other person.
There plan is to repackage and start selling him around their region through small spots of development programs before going full blown towards 2022.
“The Tycoons have been working in building Raila Odinga’s presidency and planning how to sell him to the Mount Kenya region people. They have also reportedly endorsed Peter Kenneth to succeed president Uhuru as the Mount Kenya region spokesman and to deputize the opposition chief in the upcoming General election in 2022,” an insider told the paper.
Should this be true, then Odinga’s dream of becoming the 5th President of the Republic of Kenya will be made alot easier through a strategically placed State machinery, and financing.
