Mr Kenyatta had initially promised to help Ruto capture presidency upon his retire in 2022, a promise which seems to fade.

Uhuru's decision to work with ODM leader Raila Odinga has further caused cracks within government, with Ruto claiming that there is a plot to frustrate him.

Kericho Governor Paul Chepkwony and his Nandi counterpart Stephen Sang on Sunday asked Uhuru to honour his promise.

"It’s important that leaders learn to keep the promises they make to the public and, especially on the Jubilee succession plan, the covenant should be kept," said Professor Chepkwony.

Sang claimed that the Building Bridges Initiative campaign has lost track, adding that there is need for the president to honour his promises.

“The BBI is no longer what we thought it was. It has now been turned into a political tool by some leaders who want to use it to ascend to leadership in the 2022 poll,” said Mr Sang.

“We should be careful in Jubilee lest we disintegrate as a party… we should not lose sight of the prize, which we must deliver.”
