‘Ubarikiwe Mpaka Ushangae’: DP William Ruto Sends Birthday Message to President Uhuru

Deputy President William Ruto on Saturday morning took to Twitter to wish President Kenyatta a happy 58th birthday.

In his tweet, Ruto, who described Kenyatta as his friend and boss, said the president was an inspiration to him, the party and millions of Kenyans.

“Happy birthday to my friend and Boss H.E. Uhuru Kenyatta. You are a great inspiration to me, Jubilee leadership and millions of Kenyans as the youngest President we’ve ever had,” Ruto tweeted.

Ruto went ahead to remind Kenyatta that he was looking forward to what they agreed to do when they retire.

“As we age, I look forward to what we agreed on to do when we retire. Remember? Ubarikiwe mpaka Ushangae!” Ruto wrote.

Kenyatta has on several occasions insisted that he will retire once his second and final term expires but there have been calls by a section of leaders allied to him to remain in politics beyond 2022.
