Mount Kenya dismisses Uhuru-Ruto lunch

Nothing much will change between President Uhuru Kenyatta and Deputy President William Ruto regardless of the meetings they hold, a Jubilee MP has said.

Nyeri Town MP Ngunjiri Wambugu on Wednesday said the situation will remain the same if the DP does not stop his opposition to the graft war.

He maintained that Ruto must genuinely support the handshake between President Kenyatta and former Prime Minister Raila Odinga.

“All that I can say is that no matter how many public meetings they have, nothing will change between them unless or until …Ruto stops his opposition to the fight against corruption, and …Ruto genuinely supports the ‘handshake’,” Ngunjiri posted on his Facebook page.

He was reacting to Tuesday’s visit by the President to his deputy’s Harambee Annex office, where the two leaders had a ‘working lunch’ and discussions on the Jubilee development agenda.

Details of the meeting remain scanty.

However, even after the meeting, the first time legislator said, “President Kenyatta will not be intimidated. Attacks on the DCI are over. The fight against corruption will continue, without political sideshows.”

Ngunjiri is among Jubilee politicians branded as “Team Kieleweke” which is opposed to a Ruto Presidency and his early 2022 campaigns.

His post resulted in a backlash from his online followers. 

Some said the believed the meeting between the two affirmed Uhuru’s support for his deputy to succeed him and was still intact.

Chinga MCA Kiruga Thuku said Uhuru was confirming his earlier statement that he would serve for 10 years and support Ruto for 10 years as President.

“The greetings you see here are just a dress rehearsal of how outgoing President Uhuru Kenyatta and incoming President William Ruto will shake hands during the 2022 change of power, God willing,” Thuku wrote.

Paul Kahiga said people like Ngunjiri should take care not to be embarrassed at the end of the day.

“It’s obvious the game plan between the duo is a hidden card. That’s why I keep asking you to concentrate on matters that affect the common person if at all you want to build your political career. But do you have ears?” Kahiga wrote.
