Former Kiambu Governor William Kabogo on Monday met Deputy President William Ruto in Karen, a move that has elicited mixed reactions among Kenyans.
The Kiambu politician posted a photo of him and DP Ruto on Twitter, with the caption “I “tangatangad” Karen to see my good friend the DP.”
However, the two did not disclose the meeting's agenda.
Here are some of the reactions by Kenyans:
@MartoNjau said: "This is pure politics. The DP was to be at Kiambu yesterday but sent Speaker of Senate. Today, you pay him a visit. @Waititu Babayao, DP read the PUBLIC RIOT ACT on Friday and cannot visit Kiambu County. @honkabogo this is right way at the right time."
@Naftalikimemia posted: "In our ruriri, you are the only leader left who can save us by negotiating the big seat. If Ruto will be our president, we need our DP. President Uhuru has left us hanging having nurtured no one...those who back a lot, the like of Ichung’wa are just hecklers without direction."
@to_Clive said: "In any case Ruto will choose Kabogo as the running mate, my vote is there this is the best combination."
@JamleckJnr wrote: “I believe in you, am your fan number one hope you won't be pocketed by this guy. Last time I watched you on citizen TV you were very sober n you articulated your points very well. Make peace with him but don't come telling us to vote for him. Good day as you tangatanga.”
@BAHATI12 wrote: "Mwambie shida zako zote apeleke kwa rais."
@kelienick said: "I think I will stop listening to hear say stories for good. Rumor has it that that guy was behind wewe kubwagwa na waititu and I see you guys are happy???????????"
@kibuchimzito said: "You are a good leader and politician but you lacked humbleness."
@Kioko52061832 said: "Wewe tanga tanga tu lakini remember we need you back in office next term."
@JackOuko1 said: “You are not governor today because of him,, he saw you as a potential threat to his presidency.”
@JamesKamauNjen1 wrote: “There's need to join hand for the prosperity of this country ...greatly missed in Kiambu.”
