Ruto's Allies Accuse President Uhuru of Misusing Taxpayers Cash on BBI, Demand a Sh13.5 Billion Refund

A section of MPs allied to Deputy President William Ruto have threatened to sue President Kenyatta for misusing public funds.

The MPs claim that the president spent taxpayers cash amounting to Sh13.5 billion on the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) process that was declared unconstitutional by the courts.

“Sh13.5 billion can transform this country. We are actually going to put up a case against the president to make sure that he repays back the money,” Aldai MP Cornelly Serem said on Sunday.

They argued that Kenyatta did not seek Parliament’s approval to spend public funds on the flopped constitutional review process.

“Our President never got authority from the parliament to spend the money and should therefore pay back our Sh13.5 billion he spent,” Tinderet MP Julius Melly stated.

The MPs spoke during a fundraiser at St. Paul’s Theological College in Kapsabet, Nandi County on Sunday.

On his part,  Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro said he will table a motion in the National Assembly to compel President Kenyatta to return the funds he used to promote BBI.

"The Court of Appeal judges confirmed BBI was a private affair. Since BBI started, it has been a series of theatrics," said Nyoro.

On Friday, the Appeals Court upheld a High Court verdict declaring the entire BBI process null and void.

I want Ruto to stand up here and challenge Uhuru for wasting our money! The uncircumcised DP Ruto has the go-knuts (makende) to tell Uhuru through some little back voice about money wasting! What a fucking shame!

I’m with you - Ruto will never burn our people again, and he still owes us! Any attempt by Ruto to kill our children will be met with furious fire like he has never known before!

Kikuyus need to be well prepared in case 2022 goes “south” and God forbid Ruto end up taking over from Njamba! We are all ears and eyes!

@Joe And where will you be asking us Kikuyus to be ready? Ready for what...let’s not start warmongering conversations when there is none to talk about. These cheap talks are the ones that start events like the PEV.

Instead of paying it back to the government treasury how about paying regular folk cash money or subsidizing the cost of every day essentials like unga , bread milk or even cooking gas.Please do not say the money will be used for Covid or for upcoming elections .We already have enough Covid millionaires assuming the money can even be paid back

Ruto should pay back all the government money he has spent in the last through years. He has traversed the country instead of spending time serving the country. He earns his salary for doing nothing but tanga tangaring.

Even Murkomen ended up buying a Shs 100,000,000 the tax payers money he stole from coffers! Do you remember Rotich taking bags on money from the treasury to Ruto’s sugoi house! That is the money they used to buy expensive toys!!

It gets quite interesting when thieves call other evildoers thieves. These stupid MPs should shut up and do some soul searching.

@halisi steals for Ruto all the same causing me to say there are no adults in kale’s house! They hear see nothing, see nothing and they don’t correct their mortal beings when they kill others!

Ask DP Ruto about “too many murders”? When someone burns women and children in a church, kills Juma, Yebei, Kenei, Mwikali, Muteshi , etc - certainly he should be able to explain murders.
