Deputy President William Ruto has time and again proven to be a Political Genius despite what his opposers and critics try to bring to him.
This is a man that has not only had to fight the corruption tag put on him but has also diligently dealt with those who have opposed his 2022 Presidential bid with the numbers in the opposition camp seemingly rising as the days go by.
Fast foward, word has come out that even his perceived closest ally President Uhuru Kenyatta is drifting away from him and is currently dining with opposition Chief Raila Odinga.
Even this seems to have done little to dampen the DP’s spirits if his response to those attacking Uhuru Kenyatta are anything to go by.
In what is seen as a tactical move, Ruto threw his weight behind Uhuru reiterating that development projects must be rolled out equitably across the country.
In a series of tweets, Ruto asked disaffected leaders to use appropriate channels to address their concerns instead of resorting to moves that undermine Uhuru and the Jubilee leadership.
“Projects promised for decades became a reality under Jubilee many Kenyans especially Jubilee members understandably are asking us for more. This must be tempered with the reality of what we can afford. No region, community or Kenyan will be left behind now or in future,”he stated.
He went on: “Jubilee members must however use appropriate mechanism to channel matters concerning us and avoid unnecessary negative debate that only undermine the party , the party leadership and the President.”
The DP listed the Standard Gauge Railway, 7000km tarmac roads, NHIF reforms, 4.6 million additional electricity and 160 New TIVETs as among Jubilee’s major achievements.
JUBILEE rolled out a comprehensive development agenda to transform kenya in 2013. From SGR,7000km tarmac roads to reform of NHIF& 4.6m additional electricity,160 New TIVETs and more ;distributed EQUITABLY across kenya DELIBERATELY. The BIG4 will build on this foundation. FACTS
