Kabogo Warns President Uhuru Against Turning His Back on Ruto

John Wanjohi Mar 28, 2019

Former Kiambu Governor William Kabogo has warned President Kenyatta against breaking his promise to support Deputy President William Ruto's 2022 presidential bid.

Kabogo argues that Ruto was the man behind President Uhuru's victory in 2013 and 2017; hence he must rally behind him come 2022.

The politician has also poked holes at the historic March 9th, 2018 handshake between Kenyatta and Orange Democratic Movement leader Raila Odinga.

Kabogo has questioned why Kenyatta and Odinga failed to incorporate other leaders like Ruto and Wiper chief Kalonzo Musyoka in the handshake.

"Where Raila gets into, things turn bad... if indeed this handshake was to bring peace, why did they not involve Ruto and Kalonzo Musyoka? We would now be enjoying peace," Kabogo says as quoted by The Star.

Kabogo has spoken during an interview with Emoo FM, a MediaMax-owned radio station broadcasting in Kalenjin language.

“I know where DP and the President started their political union. Uhuru and I drove to Ruto’s Karen home. We sat under a tree for three days negotiating a working relationship...Ruto helped Uhuru to win. Do you think we would have won without Ruto?" Poses Kabogo.
