Speaking during an interview with NTV on Thursday at his Karen home, Ruto said that he is aware of a cabal that wants him taken back the court because of the 2007/2008 Post Election Violence (PEV). 

He claimed that some unknown persons have been sent to the country to collect evidence to ensure he is back to the court.

"There are characters who have already sent people to Kenya to resuscitate the ICC cases against me - DP Ruto. #RutoSpeaks @KenMijungu," he said.

The second in command also said that he is aware of some leaders who want to take advantage of the current political situation to gain mileage. 

He argued that the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) was a good idea until the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) leaders hijacked them same. He insisted that he is only ready to back a report that is about the people and not a few individuals.

"There are games and there are people who want to manipulate politics in the hope that they can serve their interests, and not the people’s interests," he added.
