Deputy President William Ruto is set to run for presidency come 2022 and all he needs is a stronger support base.
Considering the current flow of events, the DP should seek to merge with National Revolutionary Movement (NRM) general Miguna Miguna for a smooth flow into State House come 2022.
Why? Because Miguna Miguna is the only leader who is capable of neutralizing Raila Odinga as at now after the mighty handshake that shook the support base of the latter with a good number of them terming it a betrayal.
Miguna Miguna has huge following recently especially when he 'took over' the opposition after Odinga and President Kenyatta resolved to work together as a government.
His supporters together with those of the deputy president are enough to see the latter walk into State House and for this reason, the DP should be craving for him.
President Uhuru Kenyatta chose to work with Raila Odinga, the deputy president should not hesitate to work with Miguna Miguna as this is for his own benefit come 2022.
Although the race will not be too tight for him now that Odinga dismissed claims that he will be running in 2022, he still needs support from Nyanza and Miguna Miguna is the prominent leader who is able to bring his supporters to spear him to state house.
He should, therefore, make plans to rebuild ties with the general or rather choose him as the deputy should he accept that in preparation for 2022.
