Ex-Jubilee vice chairman David Murathe, a close Uhuru ally, has openly stated that Ruto is not qualified to occupy State House.

“He [Ruto] is in court with his lawyer Ahmednassir fighting the issue of the Weston [Hotel], for example. There are allegations of his involvement in the maize scandal where farmers in Rift Valley were shortchanged…and every time these things are pointing fingers at an individual as either the godfather or getting involved,” Murathe claimed on Sunday after his dramatic resignation.
