Issac Ruto Names IDP Camps after President Uhuru, Ruto

The rivalry between Bomet Governor Isaac Rutto and Deputy President William Ruto escalated on Thursday after Governor Rutto asked Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) of Itare Dam project in Nakuru County to name their camps after the Jubilee party leaders.

In his tour to the IDPs on Thursday, the National Super Alliance principal publicly asked locals to name the temporary settlements as "Kambi William" and "Uhuru Camp".

Rutto attacked the Jubilee administration led by Uhuru Kenyatta for evicting the 1,278 families from their lands to allow the construction of the multi-billion dam, leaving them homeless.

Rutto said the government threw out families out of their homes without due consultation or public participation as required by law.

He donated 30 bags of maize to the families who were kicked out of their homes to create space for the construction of the Sh34 billion dam funded by the Italian government.

"Jubilee has been saying that Raila Odinga evicted families from the Mau forest but they are worse... They shared Sh4 billion meant for public participation and demolished houses without any notice," the governor said.

Rutto, who was accompanied by Kuresoi South MP Zakayo Cheruiyot, promised to send medics to the camps to examine and treat sick families. "Cheruiyot and I are the only people who will rescue Rift Valley residents from greedy leaders out to trade for their personal gain."

He wooed residents to vote NASA and Raila Odinga as a block , saying that he is the only one who will liberate Rift Valley from Jubilee.

Ndugu Ruto:

The man who saved Rift Valley people from Jubilee arrogance, corruption, and possible myopic view on the reality of the 42 micro-nations that make up the current people of Kenya.

Hongera sana ndugu. Kusema kweli, sote twakutakia kila la heri kuhusu ukomboaji wa watu wa jimbo la ufa kutokana na ulaghai, ufisadi, na uangamizi wa wakazi wote wa jimbo hili tukufu.

How many people did Raila liberate from kibira slams during his tenure as mp there and also as the Prime Minister.

@Sam Igram:

The people of Kenya have been politically held hostage by the politics of the first president of Kenya Ndugu Kamau wa Ngengi aka Jomo Kenyatta and Ndugu Oginga Odinga.

@ Sam Igram, I would like the people of Kenya to disassociate themselves politically from all the descendants of Kamau and Odinga.

After Mzee Kamau died, a person appointed by him ( Toroitich Arap Moi) took the leadership of Kenya back to the "stone age."
After the second liberators of Kenya succeed, Toroitich dictatorial leadership came to an abrupt and sweet end. Before he let the office of the president, he appointment the son of Kamau ( Uhuru) to take over from him.

Again, the son of Oginga, endorsed Ndugu Mwai Kibaki by uttering the words, " Kibaki Tosha." Uhuru then lost the election.

Ndugu Sam, I don't support Raila or Uhuru to be the next president of Kenya! I have had enough politics from the two billionaires descendants of Kamau and Oginga. It is time the Kenyan people wake up from their political death by assuming that only anyone connected to Oginga or Kamau and the Kalenjin sycophants are the only ones capable of being the president of Kenya.

As far as I am concerned, only one president talked less and did a lot for the Kenyans. Guess who? If you guessed Ndugu Mwai Kibaki, you are correct. He is the founding father for the SGR and the Nairobi - Thika Highway.

Long live Mwai Kibaki.
