We Stole Votes for President Uhuru, MP Moses Kuria Says
Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria claims he was involved in rigging the 2013 and 2017 presidential elections in favor of President Kenyatta.
Speaking on Tuesday during the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party’s National Delegates Conference (NDC), Kuria said he collaborated with other leaders to steal votes for Kenyatta.
"Kuna wengine wanasema ati kura ya mlima itagawanywa; mheshimiwa Ann Waiguru, Rigathi Gachagua, Muthomi Njuki, Kimani Ichung’wa, Senator Linturi, Alice Wahome, Faith Gitau, Kimani wa Matangi…Sisi ndio tulikuwa tukishikilia Uhuru kura, na sisi ndio tulikuwa tunamuibia kura,” Kuria stated.
Kuria, who is the party leader of Chama Cha Kazi (CCK), threw his support behind Ruto’s 2022 presidential bid, saying the deputy president has liberated the people Mt. Kenya from political oppression.
“Wacha niwaambie sisi watu wa Mlima kama si huyu mungwana (Ruto) ingetuchukua miaka 100 kuvunja nyororo ya wale wachache ambao walikuwa wanafikiria hatutaongoza taifa,” Kuria said.
“You have made it possible for me, an MP of the president, to take a different path from a sitting president without fear and for me, that is very important. We owe you the debt of gratitude for liberating us.”
Kuria castigated President Kenyatta for sidelining Ruto and his allies despite working tirelessly to ensure he clinches the presidency in 2013 and 2017.
Kuria, who is eyeing the Kiambu Governor's seat in the forthcoming elections, also liked Ruto to retired president Mwai Kibaki, saying he is a good human.
“You might be a good leader, politician and party leader but one thing I am sure you are a good human being and that makes a big difference. Supporting a good human being is more important than supporting a good leader because we can take your word,” Kuria added.

Muici na kihii akenaga kiarua. Can the IEBC check this out?
Check what out? What Kuria is saying is true & there’s no need to form a commission of inquiry that will drag on for years!
Votes gets stolen in Kenya! No doubt about that:
Did you forget what forum you’re on? F you just say?!
@Hahaha @Kamande, I say lets give Moses Kuria two microphones or three ili aongee kabisa then he can revise/review or learn traditional rites of passage because clearly he bypassed some if not all of them.
Moses Kuria must be probed to explain how he stole the votes in 2013 and 2017.
I still wish Kuria’s feet were still bandaged with electric blanket wounds to keep him in check.
The only thing he joined UDAku is because he is a thief of CDF money. That is the money he used to buy the electric blanket and so he was punished by God for stealing poor people’s money.
True, Kuria is a low level thief.
One so called “visionary “ leader once said utongoria ndugakira chania little he knew Kibaki will be president from beyond the river. And offcourse his son has no idea how to lead despite the opportunity.
Old cursed kikuyu mentality! Is Ruto a member of the Chania community? Ruto killed your people from Kiambaa in Kiambu when they settled near Eldoret.
Kuria is the one who laid a memorial marker at the Kiambaa church in Eldoret but now he is with Ruto betraying all those Ruto killed. Give Kenyans a break when you start talking trash.
Ruto did not kill anyone in Kiambaa or anywhere. It’s Raila and Kibaki who killed about 1500 people all across Kenya. 1500 died overall and you keep singing about Kiambaa.
MP Kuria must do the honorable thing and resign for saying he stole votes in 2017 elections.
Is kenya breeding a young generation of thieves who claim to be leaders? It is really shocking that Kuria can publicly admit to stealing and he is still running around free.
He is a very bad example of what is expected of a leader today.
Why should he for yet he’s speaking his truth? Everyone else is a thief!
Kuria’s utterances of UDAku thieves planning to steal the 2022 elections for Ruto is clearly very shameful.
99% of those present in Thika have corruption cases to answer for stealing from the public. Is UDA party the next group to destroy Kenya’s economy through colossal theft and corruption?
Is what we saw in Thika what Kenyans want for kenya? I’m really ashamed by the shenanigans that went on in Thika during Ruto’s coronation. Very pitiful indeed!
Embarrassing to say the least!
The voters will not vote for Ruto and all those thieves Moses Kuria called out publics as thieves. It is the end of Kuria and I hope no one votes for him. He is a big thief too.
This crook is the worst traitor of all times! He should be condemned to hell. No wonder he got his crippled ugly feet burned! He should have become a crippled man. Useless.
Kenyans have heard every manner of nonsense from this lose tongue idiot. Surely the youth have better sense to listen to this mad man. The people need to dare him to steal any elections in 2022 now he has come out of his gay closet to declare he is a thief. How useless can Kuria be for God’s sake?
Moses Kuria has proved to be one of the most useless politician Kenya has ever had. He is literally a curse to Kiambu and Kenya at large.
He should resign from Gatundu South parliamentary seat immediately for claiming to have participated in stealing elections votes.
I also condemn Ruto for acknowledging everything Kuria was saying. Ruto is obviously not a statement but a crook who is taking Kenya to hell in a small basket. Ruto is not politically mature to be president!
What is wrong with these UDAku characters whose personal interests are bigger than our country? Kenyans must clearly understand what is at stake with these idiots.
Kuria belongs in jail for travesty against Kenyan people and justice. If his allegations are true beyond reasonable doubt, this is an election crime and he should be held accountable!!!
Ruto and his UDAku thieves have severely panicked as they sense defeat come August 2022. Only a mad group of people would publicly say what Ruto and his crazy team of thieves said in Thika.
The speech Ruto gave during NDC was equivalent to declaring anarchy to the Republic of Kenya. DP Ruto will be the worst president if elected in August. If you think Ruto calling Kikuyus madoadoa in Eldoret was bad, Thika was far worse than that madoadoa speech. If Ruto can attack Uhuru in Thika, Kikuyus should see the red signs of what Ruto will do to them without Uhuru. Ruto will indiscriminately kill Kikuyus!
Kenya will experience the greatest loss of life since the rule of Hitler of Germany in 1940s. Ruto has all the emblems of Hitler and other crazy guys who have the destroyed the world before him!
This reminds me of the Swahili/English translation. The main word was "Silaha", where prosecution interpreted "Gun". It was the defense lawyer who intervened to explain that gun was "bunduki" and "silaha" was weapon. Moses Kuria words were "tulikuwa tunamuibia", and the key word is "kuiba" which is "to steal". "Rigging" and "Stealing" are two different words, though the reporter used them interchangeably in this article like they had the same meaning. Waiting for IEBC's explanation.
Thank you for admitting Dammy now DCI will come and squeeze your little Balls .
He has admitted they stole votes. He is accepting being a criminal and at the same time trying to win the election. He will do the same thing once again.
UDA, lead by Ruto speak like drunk people in a bar. They see Uhuru as the enemy because they can’t handle RAO. They also assume Kenyans are fools. Come Aug. 9, you will realize we are living in the year 2022 and not 1980s. I thought Ruto had a PHD but he speaks far worse than a village drug addict. Your lies and those of your people will lead you to the dustbins of history. Kenya is better than you all. Your goons are not enough to propel you to the state house.
Kuria said they are the ones who helped Uhuru get votes and that they are the same ones who are taking away Uhurus votes. He never mentioned the time frame for the act except that we know the last sentence is present. To mean they are at the moment taking( his word stealing) Uhurus votes away.
If he meant otherwise then president Uhuru has been all along an illegitimate president.
