Deputy President William Ruto has lashed out at ODM leader Raila Odinga over his utterances on the loss of funds meant to construct dams.
Speaking in Garissa County on Friday, a visibly angry Ruto said those who lost elections promised to go to Kibera to sell mandazis.
DP Ruto’s remarks seemed to be directed at Raila who in 2009 said he would go and make mandazi in Kibera when his political career was over.
Ruto said Raila should keep his promise after he lost the 2017 elections adding that he should let the government focus on serious issues of developing the country.
The DP said that Raila should not bring mandazi business into serious issues of dam construction across the country.
“I want to remind some people that they told us that if they lost an election they will go and make mandazis in Kibera. Why don’t you go and do that instead of bringing mandazi business into a very serious issue. Why are you importing mandazi economics to the government?” Ruto asked.
DP Ruto was responding after Raila Odinga hit out at Ruto over his recent corruption remarks saying that Ruto should not dismiss the loss of Sh7 billion in the construction of Rift Valley dams.
