An online debate has erupted with Controversial economist and strategist David Ndii followers petitioning to Prersident Uhuru Kenyatta to appoint him as the next finance Cabinet Secretary.
The petition came following the recent scandal that has been facing Treasury CS Henry Rotich following his alleged illegal approval of Ksh 21 billion which was meant for the contrauction of the Arrir and Kimwarer dam in Elgeyo Marakwet.
David Ndii was responding to one of his fan’s tweet who started off the petition requesting President Uhuru for Ndii appointment to the cabinet.
” We want to ask President @UKenyatta and PM @RailaOdinga to replace Henry Rotich with either @DavidNdii or @Peter_Kenneth before we go the Greece way. The Treasury is rotten to the core! “

The tweet saw KOT support the idea of Ndii joining president Kenyatta’s admnistration.
However the economist was not feeling KOT vibe at all.
To his reponse he wrote, “Memo to #KOT Please stop associating my name with @Ukenyatta. Its demeaning. Let me quote myself (2015): Their [Uhuru,Ruto] backgrounds may be as different as chalk and cheese but in terms of political morality, there is nothing to choose between them” Heshima tafadhali “
