Here is the “Injili ya Shetani” tweet DP Ruto deleted

Deputy President William Ruto has pulled down his tweet in which he called out those linking him to corruption.

According to DP ruto’s tweet he referred to those linking him to graft in Government as ‘injili ya shetani’ [The devil’s narrative].

His tweet came a day after an Ipsos survey suggested that 33 per cent of Kenyans think the deputy president is among the most corrupt leaders in Kenya.

Besides taking a swipe at the research company, Mr Ruto faulted the proponents of a school of thought that Kenya’s political landscape is dominated by prominent dynasties that shape who becomes, or fails to become, Kenya’s Head of State.

According to his tweet he said, “Those running ‘injili ya shetani’ that unless your father was a minister, a vice president or a president, however hard you work, you must remain poor; and if not a pauper, you must be corrupt and have stolen, they should know that those without godfathers [like us], have God the Father. Shindwe,” he tweeted Thursday afternoon before pulling down the post.

The DP’s tweet attracted flak to his timeline, with a section of online users accusing him of using a language which demeans the office he holds.
