God and politics often come together, especially on a day when the Politicians takes over the pulpit. Deputy President William Ruto is one of those politicians who have taken their Politicking acts to the Pulpit, a clear indication that he is willing and will do all it takes to be Kenya’s next head of State.
Ruto is seemingly taking nnothing for granted and is already laying down great strategy that he thinks will help propel him to the Presidency at the expense of his competitors come 2022.
Despite various warnings by President Kenyatta for government officials and Political leaders to focus on their mandate which is to serve the people and avoid Politics, Ruto’s strategy seems to be, “Politic and Serve People in the Process.”
Ruto keeps making various trips across the country all in the name of inspecting and launching development projects only for all his functions to turn political as he drums up support for his 2022 Presidential bid.
He is clearly already in a Political mood and with the various steps he has already taken to solidify his support base, it will be a toll order for anyone who dream’s of beating Ruto come 2022.
He Keeps winning hearts and followers all over the Country especially through his now famous Team Tanga Tanga.
Ruto, despite facing a backlash from a number of leaders for putting the Country in an early Political mood,has insited that it is well in order to engage in politics at this time.
Ruto has likened the coming elections to the second coming of Christ. He said that in as much as Christians do not know the date that Jesus will return, they keep preparing for it and as such there is nothing wrong to prepare for an election that we all know the date.
” We do not know when Jesus will return, but as Christians we are preparing, why should we not prepare for the 2nd Tuesday of August 2022 election date whose timing we know” Said Ruto.

Well, Ruto’s latest remarks will seemingly anger a number of politicians both in the opposition and the Jubilee “Kieleweke faction”
Kieleweke and members of the Opposition have been calling on Ruto and Tanga Tanga to spare the Country from Political Rhetorics day in day out and instead let President Uhuru Kenyatta finish his term and cement his Legacy.
The DP’s latest statement is therefore a heavy slap on their faces and with that, Kenyans should prepare for a full blown Political War as we head into 2022.
It so seems like Ruto will not stop politicking anytime soon and anyone trying to stop him is seemingly fighting a dead war.
Do You Think that Ruto’s recent statement will create more Political Tension?
