For a very long time, someone has been working very hard to portray William Ruto as the most corrupt Kenyan to have ever been born. In fact, corruption is being used as the only weapon against Ruto’s presidential ambitions.
Now a Mt. Kenya politician has now taken this a step further and is trying to use corruption to turn the electorate against the Deputy President.
Nyeri Town MP Ngunjiri Wambugu has found himself in trouble after trying to suggest that the DP will represent corruption cartels in 2022 General elections:
I completely agree! pic.twitter.com/fX2ha9F1v4— Hon Ngunjiri Wambugu (@ngunjiriwambugu) March 5, 2019
His sentiments have however attracted sharp criticism:
The Narrative and Perception that there is a person derailing Uhurus fight against corruption is skewed and devoid of any substance!!
Never be cheated….this is simply a PR exercise of dynasties..
But 2022….heheeeee— @willisjos (@josphat78204425) March 5, 2019
You should be asking Kenyans to mobilize and remove uhuru, ruto, raila, and all the nincompoops enslaving Kenyans from positions of power they are abusing. Don’t spoil Kenyans’ mood with silly messages intended to hide the plunder being perpetuated by the president.— juma stephen (@jumasteve) March 5, 2019
Who cares? Agree or disagree DP Ruto is the man we are voting in comes 2022. Jubilee is a criminal enterprise lead by @Ukenyatta the main cartel in corruption. Who said Mt. Kenya cartels must be in next government. Mtajua hamjui.— Vitalis Omboyi (@Vitalis_Omboyi) March 5, 2019
New #Uthamaki narrative. Two fugitives capture State to escape justice, plunder together for five years, subvert elections, and when convenient, one is villain the other saint. Using Ruto to cleanse #Uthamaki Jubilee demons will not wash. Jubilee is a joint criminal enterprise. https://t.co/slVVdgmWF9— David Ndii (@DavidNdii) March 5, 2019
