Narc-Kenya party leader Martha Karua says she would choose Opposition leader Raila Odinga over Deputy President William Ruto as Kenya’s next President.
Speaking during an interview with Ebru Africa TV, the lawyer was asked to name her choice if Odinga and Ruto were the only presidential candidates on the ballot.
She says: “I would obviously support Raila. But Raila hasn’t declared.”
Karua has maintained that Ruto is not fit to occupy the office of the President.
“I consider Ruto totally unsuitable, and I have my own reasons. His supporters have their own reasons. I also have my right to speak out,” Karua notes.
Karua says she has previously worked with the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party leader and, although he’s not perfect, she would choose him over Ruto any day.
“Nobody is perfect but if you give me the two, I wouldn’t even have to think, I will choose Raila,” she adds.
In an interview with Citizen TV a few weeks ago, Karua said Ruto is unsuitable to be President due to issues surrounding Chapter six of the Constitution on integrity.
“Those are my personal views and there are many issues and some of them involve Chapter 6 of the Constitution,” said Karua, a position she had stated in a tweet earlier.
She tweeted; “I hold the view that @WilliamsRuto is the least qualified for the job and as such would never endorse him. His campaign should desist from dragging my name along.”
A (presumably) presidential…
A (presumably) presidential candidate who prefers one candidate over another in the same race she is (presumably in) instead of herself has no bushiness (yes bushiness) to lead-bankrupt.

I would have chosen Martha,…
I would have chosen Martha, but seems like she’s out of the race. Will wait for the nominations.
Martha you are right, Raila…
Martha you are right, Raila would be a better leader given his history of compromise, fighting for democracy, inclusivity and constitutional change. He has suffered for the sake of the country at least unlike Ruto who has been thieving throughout his political life and killing Kikuyus in Rift Valley from days of Kanu young ’92 with Jirongo to 2007 church killing, tear gassing kids, maize scandal, land grabbing, grabbing gova tenders etc. The list is long and gets longer everyday.
Wakati wa kung’oa (uproot)…
Wakati wa kung’oa (uproot) magugu (weeds) katika uongozi wa nchi yetu utafika 2022. Ni lazima magugu yote yang’olewe na Kenya ianze upya kabisa.
Waswahili husema, “Wajinga ndio waliwao.” Iwapo mwaka wa 2022 Wakenya watafanya makosa tena halafu wamchague mmojawapo wa watu wafutao: Raila, Ruto, Gideon Toroitich, Kalonzo, Mudavadi, Wetangula, Sonko, Joho, Kuria, Waititu (baba yao), KENYA itamalizika kabisa, Kenya itamalizika kabisa.
Ni muhimu watu wa Kenya waanze kumtafuta “kiongozi nyota” (a shining star) ambaye watamchagua mwaka wa 2022 ili aiokoe (save) nchi yetu kutokana na ufisadi ambao ulianza mwaka wa 1963 na umeendelea bila pingamizi yoyote mpaka sasa.
Ukimwajiri chui akuchungie kondoo zako, mwishowe chui huyo atakutafuna baada ya kuwala kondoo wote. Nawaombeni muwe macho 24/7 ili msimchague “chui” mwingine kuwa rais wa nchi ya Kenya 2022.
