Economist Dr. David Ndii has projected DP William Ruto resounding triumph against Raila Odinga in 2022 Presidential race.
Ndii, a former NASA strategist turned critic is now gravitating towards Ruto’s presidency.
He fell out with opposition leader Raila Odinga after he failed to respect a coalition agreement with his NASA partners Musalia Mudavadi and Kalonzo Musyoka.
Ndii says NASA’s objective was to force a regime change but Raila selfishly accepted to be bought by Uhuru for a sum and he abandoned the struggle with a thud.
According to Ndii’s projection, DP Ruto will win the the 2022 Presidential race by over 70 percent.
” I study polls and DP Ruto is leading. There is no way Raila can compete with the young and vibrant Ruto”, Ndii said during an interview on a local TV station on Tuesday.
Dr. Ndii’s projection are in concurrence with a recent opinion poll by Infotrak which placed DP Ruto at 34 percentage points with Raila coming a distance second at 14 per cent.
The two protagonist are expected to go head to head in 2022.
Raila will be making his fifth stab at the Presidency. His 2022 bid has been referred to as his last bullet as protaginst of his presidency led by Murathe refer to it as a Mandela moment.
According to KNBS statistics, about 14 million Kenyans of working age are either unemployed or in informal jobs.
Raila has already warned that the current debate on Husters vs Dynasty has the potential of inciting the poor against the poor.
But strategist Ndii says it’s better to have a class war than a tribal war.
Raila’s allies have taken to the social media to castigate Ruto’s style of politics of empowering Hustlers.
But the Deputy President remains unbowed and has urged his critics to close down factories that manufacture wheelbarrows, carts and other assorted items he gives to youth groups in his weekly empowerment program at Karen Office, if they feel threatened.
A day after skipping the National Covid-19 conference at KICC, Ruto went full blast dishing out wheelbarrows in a move seen as mocking his critics.
