Kuresoi South MP Zakayo Cheruiyot has accused the Deputy President William Ruto of misleading the Kalenjin community.
Speaking in his office in Kuresoi, Cheruiyot said they formed URP party to champion the interests of the Kalenjin community but Ruto 'killed' it without consulting.
“Ruto is not a person to be trusted at all. He changed the party from URP, JAP to later Jubilee Party. Where does this lead to? As local leaders, he didn’t inform us. The party has a hidden agenda which favors certain elites and not the common voter,” said Cheruiyot.
He urged the Kalenjin people to back the newly formed Chama Cha Mashinani.
“My appeal to the people of Kuresoi and Kalenjin community at large is that they should support CCM party. We need to show DP Ruto that the Kalenjin community cannot be driven as per his wishes,” he added.
