Tuesday, August 2, 2022 –President Uhuru Kenyatta has asked members of Kikuyu Community not to risk electing his deputy William Ruto into power.
Uhuru who was addressing voters in his Kiambu County backyard on Monday August 1 said it would be a very awkward thing to allow Ruto to succeed him when there is a better option of Raila Odinga who looks calm and mature.
The President who was speaking this in complete Kikuyu dialect said Ruto will be a very dangerous leader and may harm many people when he takes office.
He pegged is argument on the fact that Ruto likes a lot to talk about deaths and assassinations because that is what he is made up of.
“You people from Mt Kenya Region, if you elect Ruto, you will cry one day because the man is very evil.
“I hear some saying I want to kill them. Tell them I don’t have any business doing that. All those years they have been abusing me while on top of cars, have you heard me respond to them? Now that I am heading to Icaweri is the time I will think of killing them?” he asked.
He, therefore, rooted for Azimio la Umoja-One Kenya candidate Raila Odinga whom he described as a very genuine leader who many can depend on after August 9.
“I am supporting him because he is a good man and has been listening to me whenever there is an issue. He supported BBI that meant well to our people,” Uhuru said.
Kenyatta made this remark at Kamangu Primary School Grounds in Kiambu where he issued more than 14,000 Title Deeds to the locals.
He also said he is more than willing to leave office and join his family in the village.
