Senate Majority Leader Kipchumba Murkomen says Office of the President is keen to curtail DP William Ruto's 2022 chances.
While Murkomen, a staunch supporter of Ruto, does not directly link President Uhuru Kenyatta to the plot, however, he says, a clique of State operatives are carrying out the mission.
" There is a group of people at OP who works day and night to bring Ruto down. They are determined to bring discord between Uhuru and Ruto.
"They run government operations and their target is Ruto. If these issues are not solved, then we may build walls in future'future," he said.
Should Uhuru and Ruto fail to iron out the matter, Murkomen says, the cracks in Jubilee may be untreatable.
Further, he says, the lifestyle audit being fronted by Uhuru was crafted by the OP operatives to further sabotage Ruto.
" unfortunately, the announcement caught the DP off-guard. There are all indications that they are hiding in lifestyle audit just to pin him down."
According to the Elgeyo-Marakwet senator, the clique of people in Uhuru's office are keen to have Ruto's wealth audited.
Further, he says, they leaked the lifestyle audit plans to Machakos governor Alfred Matua days before President Uhuru Kenyatta publicly spoke about it in Mombasa where Ruto first knew about the plans.
In recent weeks, politicians allied to the two camps have been launching missiles against one another, an indication that the marriage between the two principals maybe be on its knees.
Also, Murkomen faulted Uhuru's attitude towards Ruto by accusing the president of treating his deputy 'casually'
