Deputy President William Ruto has faulted plans to amend elections law ahead of the August 9th general elections.
Ruto, who is eying the presidency, said the proposed Elections (Amendment) Bill, 2022, which is sponsored by National Assembly Majority Leader Amos Kimunya is a well-calculated plot to influence the outcome of this year’s presidential election.
He termed the bill, which pushes for manual transmission of election results among other changes, as an evil plan that must fail.
“The never-ending onslaught through election law amendments is a choreographed attempt to install a puppet on the Kenyan electorate and sabotage our freedom of choice and hard-earned democracy,” Ruto said in a statement on Thursday.
“The plan is evil and must fail. The people have resoundingly said hatupangwingwi.”
He further alleged that the amendments were part of a wider plan to forcibly install ODM leader Raila Odinga as Kenya’s fifth president against the will of the people of Kenya.
“The desperate efforts to install project Kitendawili by forceful, illegal, undemocratic and unconstitutional means portends a troubled future for Kenya, its democracy, the rule of law, freedom of its citizens and, ultimately, everyone’s well-being,” said Ruto.
He added: “The assaults on the Constitution through reckless legislative and administrative sleights off-hand, by dark forces operating in shadows, are fundamental ingredients of a coup; the sovereignty of the people of Kenya is under grave threat.”
The bill proposes among other things to delete section 39(1g) of the Elections Act that requires IEBC to establish a mechanism for the live-streaming of election results as announced at polling stations.

Uhuru wants to reincarnate…
Uhuru wants to reincarnate himself in the coming government. The best way he could do that so is have a project Raila in power, bulldoze the BBI or rather change the constitution for that purpose. This will give Raila a pathway to appoint Uhuru as prime minister. The judiciary will eventually be watered down by the new created laws thereby giving the government of the day totalitarian powers. Otherwise why would a ruling party endorse an opposition party?

@ Waitor:
Kenya haina ukosefu wa watu wazuri. Ningependa kukuuliza swali hili: Wewe utampigiaje kura mtu ambaye hana msimamo wowote katika maisha yake ili kupora mali ya umma?
Ndugu yetu Samoei ametumia mali ya serikali kumaliza shahada yake ya uzamivu (PhD) badala ya kufanya kazi pamoja na Ndugu yetu Rais Uhuru Ngina Kamau (Kenyatta). Baada ya uchaguzi bandia wa 2017, amekuwa akizururazura makanisani huku akiwahonga matapeli viongozi bandia wa makanisa ya kigeni ili wafuasi-kondoo wampigie kura 2022.
Leo amepoteza wakati kwa kusafiri Dubai ili amtembelee Ndugu Kuria huku akitumia mali ya umma. Kwenye safari hiyo, ameambatana na tapeli Oscar Sudi ambaye hivi majuzi alionekana akiwagawia wananchi hela za umma ili wahudhurie mkutano wa ngugu yake Samoei.
Oscar Sudi huyu alidanganya taifa lote la Kenya kwa kusema ya kwamba ametimiza elimu fulani na kumbe aliyosema si ya kweli!
@ Wator: Kenya inastahili heshima kwa kuwachagua viongozi wengine wapya walio na msimamo na tabia nzuri kuiongoza na kuitawala nchi ya Kenya vizuri.
Kwa nini mpaka sasa, Samoei hajajishughulisha na kuwanasa wote waliohusika na kuwateketezea wazee, watoto, na akina mamam katika kanisa la Kiambaa huko Eldoret? Janga hili lilitendenka zaidi ya miaka 14 iliyopita.
Tunataka Kenya mpya iliyo na viongozi wenye tabia nzuri ili Kenya iendelee mbele mpaka iweze kupita uongozi bora unaoonekana katika nchi ya Rwanda chini ya uongozi wa ndugu yetu Kagame.

@ Murume:
Asante sana kwa kuchangia kwenye mjadala huu unaohusiana na uchaguzi wa viongozi walio bora wa Kenya 2022.
Ndugu, uliyosema si kweli. Kwa nini? Sisi sote twajua ya kwamba Ndugu yetu Kivutha Kibwana hayumo kwenye zizi moja la matapeli ambamo Samoei yumo.
Kusema kweli, kama ni mapenzi yangu, ningependa kumwona ndugu yetu Kivutha Kibwana akichaguliw kuwa rais wa Kenya 2022.
1992, ndugu yetu Samoei alikuwa akiuza mayai na kuku huko Eldoret. Hebu tazama utajiri alio nao sasa baada ya miaka 30 tu! Mtu huyu ana pupa na uroho usio na mwisho.
Huwezi kumwachia fisi au chui kuchunga mifugo yako. Vijana wa Kenya ambao wanamfuata Samoei, hawajui wanamfuata nani! Ni kama mwana kondoo anayetaka kucheza na fisi bila kujua ya kwamba, fisi hachezi na kondoo!
Hakuna uhusiano baina ya paka na panya. Mwishowe, panya huliwa na paka.
