ODM leader Raila Odinga has launched a veiled attack on Deputy President William Ruto over 2022 presidential race campaigns.
According to Raila, it was inconsequential for anyone to start campaigning when there was no vacuum in the Office of the President.
“There cannot be two Presidents at a time. We can only have one in each election cycle. That is why I resolved to hold on and support President Uhuru Kenyatta,” he said.
This comes after Ruto started selling his agenda in regions considered as Raila strongholds, getting the endorsements of opposition members.
Raila recalled the painstaking political experience he had to undergo to unite with the President for the sake of stability and unity of all Kenyans.
“If you have an opportunity to be in the government, you should seize the moment to help the President deliver on its Big Four Agenda and not to campaign. Let those who are talking about the Presidency stop that debate now. Better concentrate in working for Kenyans till that time reaches,” said Raila.
Raila was speaking on Saturday during a function in Mombasa.
