Prof. George Wajackoyah, the presidential candidate of the Roots Party, has now shifted his focus to Deputy President William Ruto’s candidacy in the August polls, urging him to retire alongside his boss President Uhuru Kenyatta.
Wajackoyah was responding to former Nairobi County Assembly Speaker Beatrice Elachi, who said in an interview on NTV Thursday morning that the two should be fired.
He chastised the DP for blaming government failures on the handshake between President Kenyatta and Azimio la Umoja One Kenya presidential candidate Raila Odinga.
“President Uhuru and DP Ruto should go home so that we take the country back to 2002. -Beatrice Elachi. I am in agreement with Beatrice, we need to revive our economy this is too much, Ruto trying to cleanse himself by blaming the handshake between Raila Odinga and Uhuru Kenyatta wouldn’t make him an angel. Kenyans know who is running the government,” he wrote.
Prof. Wajackoyah, who believes he has the ultimate solution to reviving the country’s economy, has received mixed reactions over his plan to legalize marijuana in order to pay Kenya’s debts if elected president.
Wajackoyah will face off against the two frontrunners, Odinga and Ruto, as well as the Agano party’s David Mwaure Waihiga, in the race for the country’s highest office.
