The National Super Alliance (NASA) leaders have said Uhuru Kenyatta is not the problem bedevilling Kenya but DP William Ruto is.
Speaking on Friday during their campaigns in Mt Kenya, the NASA leadership said that Deputy President William Ruto is the main reason the Jubilee administration must be sent packing.
They described Ruto “as a dangerous person to lead the country.”
“Kenyatta is seeking a second term after which the Constitution won’t allow him to vie. Now we want you to think of Ruto being the president after Kenyatta. So to block Ruto, we must ensure they fall with Kenyatta,” Kalonzo Musyoka said while addressing residents at Kilimo Talii in Tharaka Nithi.
“Raila has been rigged out twice in the elections. This time Tharaka Nithi, you must say that you will remain and guard Raila’s votes. It will be the first time in five years that you will see transformation,” Kalonzo added.
Raila on his part maintained that Jubilee is riding on the glory of the last coalition Government where he served as Prime Minister.
“The projects that you see Jubilee boasting about are the ones we initiated with President Mwai Kibaki. The roads in this region were constructed while l was the minister. What our opponents are saying are promises but with no actions,” he said.
“All Kenyans are suffering despite their tribe. When the economy is bad, everyone is affected. If the price of unga has increased in Mandera, the same is experienced in Kakamega and all parts of the country. The time has come for Kenyans to join hands to deliver the country from poverty,” Raila said.
