In a video shared on Facebook, the legislator who was speaking at an event in Kericho lambasted the current Cabinet Secretaries for using government's offices and resources in advancing their future political ambitions.

Koech argued that the government officials do not have powers to make decisions regarding the direction of the ruling party. 

He further noted that they ought not to be given space to sabotage DP Ruto's 2022 presidential bid.

"Anybody who has the opportunity now and instruments of power should not think he or she, in any way, is capable of sabotaging the deputy president's ambitions," argued Koech.

The vocal legislator reminded the gathering that president Uhuru Kenyatta pledged to support his deputy's presidential bid in 2022 and had not changed his mind. He added that the citizens still hold on to the promise.

He also accused a CS ailing from Kisii for declaring his 2022 presidential bid, instead of delivering on his mandate. 

Koech asserted that the same CS had been accusing MPs and leaders allied to the DP of campaigning prematurely against the president's directive.

"We will censor you and we will impeach you," warned the MP.

According to Koech, one cannot be a CS and at the same time be a politician, with the current constitutional dispensation.
