US-based Kenyan scholar Prof. Makau Mutua says Deputy President William Ruto should quit government to lead the opposition.
Mutua, who spoke during an interview on Citizen TV’s JKL show on Wednesday night, claimed that it was clear that Kenyatta and DP Ruto had fallen out and the latter should do himself justice by leaving the government.
He further noted that Kenyatta has shown he is tired of Ruto as evidenced by his dalliance with ODM leader Raila Odinga and his focus at the moment is to build a legacy. Mutua also reminded Ruto that it is impossible to become President without Kenyatta’s support.
“You do not become President from Deputy without the President’s support. It is clear that Mr. Kenyatta has lost all patience with his deputy and is interested in building his legacy. Mr. Ruto should leave Jubilee to lead the opposition,” said Mutua.
Mutua, who is also a lawyer, reckoned that there exists a bond between Kenyattas and Odingas that is hard for DP Ruto to break, noting that the two families have been together for decades and nothing seems to put them aloof.
“The Kenyatta’s and Odinga’s have always controlled particular electorates. Ruto fans are hoping he will come out of nowhere and all of a sudden put asunder these two families and that is not going to happen,” noted Mutua.
William Ruto is trying to…
William Ruto is trying to sell the idea that Kenya needs to be a one party state .
Basically, the man has refuses to accept reality. One party system experiment has already failed in Kenya.
Kenya can only be a one party state if he kills 3/4 of the population. Am surprised he has not come to that genocidal/Ethnic cleansing conclusion.
The man has killed his way to where he is.So, genocide is his next project.
This Mutua is a Crazy man…
This Mutua is a Crazy man who seems very Uneducated or just Ignorant in Matters of Corruption. My point: Ruto is too CORRUPT to be Official opposition (leave alone President). Even the pastors he gives Bundles of Money would be CRAZY to vote for him.
What the British government…
What the British government and it’s allies have is:
1. Uhuru Kenyatta a drunk puppet who has stolen and killed his way to illegitimate power.(pathetic in whatever way you look at it). He has no problem committing genocide.
2. Raila Odinga is a spy for colonialists.He sold out and has given up.
3. William Ruto stole, landgrabbed and killed his way to power. He will have no problem committing genocide.
The question is how long will the British government and its allies sit back and continue to look like Buffons , imbeciles and morons who have all the money in the world and can’t convince anyone with integrity to protect their interest?
That is the question.
Super power countries that control village serial killers are nothing but a bunch of losers with money.
They already lost the propaganda war.How can they win respect of the locals by supporting impunity perpetrators, serial killers, goons, landgrabbers and thieves.
There so pathetic ?? God!
The British government, America and all their allies are swimming in stupidity!
Karma is just embarrassing them.
I have often disagreed with…
I have often disagreed with Makau but for this suggestion for Ruto to resign I fully concur! Everything the prince of corruption does is personally self serving and driven by greed. His sycophants – Murkomen, Sudi, Wairimu, Nyoro, Icungua, Irigu, Sonko, Kuria etc are inherently corrupt. Everything they do is to their best interests; denying the ordinary Kenyans the opportunity to thrive! It is upon these facts that Ruto should and must step down from exploiting a government of the people by the people for those same people! He must resign to allow a people’s DP to serve Kenyans.
Euro has been Used and…
Euro has been Used and Dumped by Central; just like Kalonzo was Used and Dumped by same.
@guest1 – ya Central dumped…
@guest1 – ya Central dumped Euro at its inception and left it as a debarked currency for the Europeans – here in Central, we use Shillingi ya Jomo for all our transactions!! And we will dump it once it loses its intrinsic value! We just don’t like ‘slow feet’ because – yessss slow feet dont eat!
