Deputy President William Ruto has challenged his political nemesis Opposition leader Raila Odinga to stop complaining about the nullified August 8 election and prepare to face President Uhuru Kenyatta in the fresh poll ordered by the Supreme Court.Speaking in Namwacha village in Bungoma County on Thursday, Ruto accused the NASA presidential candidate of being a crybaby and looking for faults everywhere."If he (Raila) is confident that he has support, let him face Uhuru on October 26 instead of complaining about everything and anything," Ruto said.The DP said the former Prime Minister was not ready for the repeat election and that is why he was blaming IEBC and every company or organisation that played any role in last month polls."He claimed certain forms were inaccurate. They changed their script to election officials and now they are claiming mobile phone service providers are to blame," he said.The DP added: "Let him stop complaining about servers, telephone companies and electoral agency and meet the President in the ballot."Raila has maintained that the fresh presidential poll won't take place if NASA's 'irreducible minimums' are not met."As long as IEBC, OT-Morpho, Safaricom Ltd and Al Ghurair are in charge of the election, nothing will change. Jubilee will still steal the poll," Raila said on Wednesday.
