In a tweet on Monday, the Elgeyo-Marakwet Senator stated that, if the BBI report happens to be passed, President Uhuru can be the next Prime minister after Deputy President William Ruto wins the elections. 

"If we pass the recommendations of BBI report as it is &DP Ruto wins the Presidency while HE U.Kenyatta is the Jubilee Party Leader with a majority in Parliament then former President U.Kenyatta can be the PM of course after battling it out with Moses Kuria & If President so wishes" Murkomen said

This follows Jubilee Vice-Chairman David Murathe Sunday's comment, stating that President Uhuru is free to vie in 2022 as the Prime Minister.

 Murathe claimed that there will be nothing that will stop Uhuru in 2022 as the leader of the Jubilee Party from heading the government as the executive Prime Minister should he decide to go for this seat.

“The only thing the President can’t do is to run for Presidency but, under the new political dispensation envisaged by the BBI team, we anticipate new political formations that will be all-encompassing and inclusive,” said Murathe.
