The brewing war of words between legislatures aligned to The Deputy President William Ruto and those from Hon Raila Odinga’s side is far from over.
In a rare move , the former Kiambu Governor has decided to join DP Ruto’s defense team.
This is after Siaya Senator James Orengo asked President Uhuru Kenyatta to compel his deputy to record a statement with the Director of Criminal Investigations (DCI) over alleged loss of billions meant for construction of two dams in the Rift Valley region.
Speaking during a rally in Ugenya Constituency on Saturday, Orengo vowed to force Ruto to report to DCI what he knows about the Arror and Kimwarer dams scandal if Uhuru goes slow on the matter.
However, Kabogo has said the Jubilee deputy party leader should not carry all the blame and, therefore, there was no need to be summoned by the DCI.
“Jimi (James Orengo)! How will you make him record a statement? And why. Corruption is widespread. Ruto is not corruption and corruption is not Ruto. We need a revolution. Now!” the former Kiambu stated.
Kabogo further asked politicians not to use the war against corruption as a weapon against the DP.
