National Assembly Majority Leader Aden Duale has said that Deputy President William Ruto is the man to watch ahead of the 2022 general elections. The Garissa MP said that Former Prime Minister Raila Amolo Odinga’s claims that Ruto cannot be President indicate that he is a force to reckon with when that time comes
“Unsolicited support from Agwambo confirms Ruto is the candidate to watch and front-runner 2022,” Mr. Duale posted on social media.
Raila had said that Ruto, a Rift Valley political kingpin, needs to reach out to him if he wants his dream of ascending to power to become a reality when that time comes. “Does Ruto think he can be a President without Raila? I can help him get there if he wants,” said Raila.
Ruto’s spokesperson David Mugonyi has also questioned why Raila decided to make such remarks when he is expected to back Former Vice President Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka for the post. The remarks of the former prime minister come at a time when leaders from the Jubilee side have continued to castigate the opposition’s plans to swear him into office.
