It’s not over yet between Deputy President William Ruto and President Uhuru Kenyatta. As they say, it’s not over ’til the fat lady sings. And it is what the ‘fat lady’ in the jubilee party did.
Majority Leader of the National Assembly under the Jubilee Party, honorable Aden Duale has come out to reveal that the president is faithful to his 2012 pact and will support Ruto once he is done with his second term which ends in 2021.
Duales remarks have distanced Murathes ill talk that the jubilee party will not rally behind Ruto once Uhuru completes his second term.
Duale was speaking to citizen news rooms when he said that those taking every opportunity to insult the DP will be shocked since his dream to the top seat is alive and unchallenged with the president doing enough to ensure that he clinches to the seat.
President Uhuru Kenyatta has previously come close to publicly backing his deputy William Ruto for the top seat in 2022, calming fears that his March 9 handshake with ODM leader Raila Odinga would eventually leave Mr Ruto in the cold.
But according to Aden duale , the president is not dictated to announce to public whoever he supports as his goal is to see the the realization of the Big Four agenda.
Duale says that the president has disclosed to his inner team that he will support William Ruto.
The Garissa Township MP who doubles up as the Majority Leader in the National Assembly ranks as one of the most influential politicians in the country.
The Jubilee Party decision in bestowing him the onus of driving the ruling party agenda in the national assembly appears to have been a prudent one.
Duale further says that he supports the building bridges initiative between Uhuru and Raila for uniting Kenyans.
Is Duale remarks to be trusted?
