Deputy President William Ruto has stated that he has accepted President Uhuru Kenyatta’s choice to endorse Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) leader Raila Odinga.
“I voted for Uhuru, I campaigned for him and Odinga has never voted or campaigned for President Kenyatta, but I am okay with his decision to support that one person that has never voted for him.” Ruto remarked.
The DP, however, pushed Odinga to fight his own battles and cease hiding behind President Kenyatta.
“Odinga should remember that I am not competing with Uhuru, I am competing with him, let him come out and face me. Everyone should come up with their plan and agenda and let the people of Kenya decide.”
President Kenyatta characterized Ruto as unfit to rule during a meeting with Mt Kenya leaders at the Sagana State lodge on Wednesday.
He indicated that Ruto would need to “change” before he would contemplate supporting his presidential bid in the future.
“I want leaders who want to work in unity with others not to who poke on others. I have no issue with anyone, but we must speak the truth. Lies are for today and tomorrow they will die. I have no issue with anyone, lets join hands with that old man (Raila), we can support this my man (Ruto) once he toes the line,” Uhuru added.
