Is Raila Odinga really out to destroy the Ruling Jubilee Party? There have been concerns among members of the ruling party led by Deputy President William Ruto who has time and again claimed that Raila is a known Political fraud who is up to no good with the Jubilee Party.
The latest renewed fights on corruption being spearheaded by President Kenyatta with help from relevant agencies like the DCI have caused some sort of confusion in the Jubilee Party.
Raila Odinga on the other hand has been supporting the ongoing fight on Corruption and has time and again Called out DP Ruto who he has claimed is jeorpadizing the war on corruption.
Well, DP Ruto has now come out guns blazing and has promised that he will not allow Mr. Odinga to wreck the ruling party under the guise of fighting corruption.
He described Raila as a deceitful politician, labelling him a “wolf in sheep’s skin” who was not forthright about his handshake with President Kenyatta, but one who was out to weaponize the purge as a political tool for 2022 succession.
“There is a lot of propaganda. You see all these campaigns (on corruption), it is all about Ruto. I will stand firm because I know there is nothing they can do. They didn’t support President Uhuru but they are now giving us a lecture on how to fight corruption and how to run the Government,” Ruto said at Presbyterian Church of East Africa (PCEA) in Nairobi’s Mwiki.
Ruto said Raila was the last person who should lecture anybody on graft and asked him to fix the opposition coalition, National Super Alliance (NASA), which he said was in a shambles, before he can lecture them on how to fight corruption.
He said he was being targeted in the war against corruption since he was the main threat for their political ambitions.
“These are people whom we have defeated three times. They have never supported our development agenda. Their anger is directed at me because they cannot get to Uhuru since he is doing his final term. The people who are claiming to be friendly to Jubilee, they are wolves in sheep’s skin,” Ruto charged.
