Ruto: BBI was the Most Dangerous Project in Kenya's History

Deputy President William Ruto says the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) was the most dangerous project in Kenya’s history.

Ruto, who spoke on Tuesday at his Karen residence, said the BBI Constitutional Amendment Bill would have reserved the democratic gains since independence.

He argued that the BBI, a brainchild of President Kenyatta and ODM leader Raila Odinga, sought to install an imperial president who would control all arms of the government.

“It was going to install an imperial president who would control the Judiciary, the Executive, and the Legislature. It was simply dangerous. We thank God BBI failed. Let us not lie to ourselves and the people,” Ruto stated

Ruto spoke a day after President Kenyatta faulted the courts for declaring the Constitutional (Amendment) Bill 2020 null and void, saying the judges were misguided in their ruling.

“I’m more than happy to serve out my time and finish my program. I believe this is also part of my agenda to be able to bring people together and ensure we have a peaceful, stable country,” said Uhuru.

“Unfortunately, the courts have ruled the way they have ruled and I believe they have been highly misguided in that process. Unfortunately, we have had politicians, for short-term political gain, who have deviated from why we had BBI to it being an issue of competition,” he added.

Ruto has been running his mouth last four years dishing stolen money to the churches and taking in his wages yet he does not show up to work. Looting is what he knows best and no doubt Uhuru has been very very successful this second term without him. This con who conned his way through a PhD program will be sent home for good in the next 12 months. Wait and see as this big show unfolds. After that we can revisit ICC because there is no way we are going to let this heinous act go unpunished. Justice will have to be served on a silver platter.

I wish Ruto could also review and comment on stealing and looting public fund; Post election killings/ murders. R

No. You are the most DANGEROUS person in Kenya history. A cancer to the Kenyan people, very anti development and a conning THIEF who tries to score political mileage through stirring and manipulating emotions, creating division and confusion to the most to Kenyans and unfortunately many are towing your lines. Too SAD! Every dog has its own day and all will answer in the day of judgment!!!

There is something in Ruto and about Ruto that Kenyans must understand! This man has stolen everything but has a very sweet tongue to lie to Kenyans that he is a hustler - deceitful! Ruto has killed Kenyans - Hitler of Germany killed millions of Jews! Folks buck up because I personally think Ruto has a mental problem just like Hitler did!

So killing women and children is a much better option for DP Ruto than uniting the Kenyan people!

Stop being a shithead @ruto, others can read through your asinine stupid subliminal messages! You want to be the only guy in charge so you can kill more Kikuyus in the Rift Valley!

We will not allow you to kill our people like you did in 2008! We will take you to Hague in the very near future when Gicheru start telling the truth!

We need to keep Ruto away from the presidency before we can take him to The Hague. He just told you he is a man on a mission - either a mission to Mars or a mission of killing folks like Biwot did for Moi. And remember Ruto is both a brain child of Moi and biwot.

Ruto is the most dangerous creature alive today! He is a known murderer and a big thief! Kenyans must be very careful with this Hitler wanna be asshole! Kikuyus do not be conned by a mad man who will turn around and kill all of you after 2022!

We are talking about an experienced murderer who murdered Yebei, Juma, Musando, Mwikali, Kenei, Muteshi with stress for stealing his property, etc!

God has cursed Ruto and he is just walking the earth like Caine did after he murdered his brother!

Kenyans know what BBI was meant to do - to unite Kenyans across the board.

But the kalenjin people under Ruto wants a divided Kenya so they can steal as one thieving tribe!

Please say Ruto himself alone steals because not all kales steal. Only Ruto who steals and kills for himself! We are all unhappy that he killed Kenei for no reason! I don’t think many kales will vote for Ruto in 2022. He can’t make a good president because he is a dictator.

I am a Kenyan who read and understood BBI as a money-minting machine for a small group of elite thugs.Or how could a PM or deputy from your tribe help or unite you?Prosecutor Khan has vowed to punish muuaji Raila or any other elite murderer who sponsors death in Kenya.

This murderous fool even got a mouth to talk when he has killed so many over greed? Come on Ruto, shut your freaking mouth! We all live in Kenya and we know what the hell you have done!

Kirui (not verified)     Tue, 08/24/2021 @ 07:22pm

Ruto lies like a damn dog! He says he is a man on a mission! I wonder who will killed next? That is all Ruto have ever done - killing and stealing!

Seroney (not verified)     Tue, 08/24/2021 @ 07:26pm

DP Ruto has a pending case in the ICC to determine how many Kenyans he killed in 2008! Other Kenyans like Kenei that Ruto killed have not gotten their justice yet! Wow, talk about the irony of life when a murderer goes roaming free every where like killing us simply drinking a glass of poisoned cool aid!?

Ruto you had a chance to bring (unite) people together in 1992 and 2008 but you disastrously failed because you ended up killing them and stealing their pieces of lands!

Do you remember Mzee Mteshi? You stole his land and eventually killed him with stress! Do you remember Kiambaa massacre where you locked women and children inside a church and then lit the match to kill all of them? And by the way, those you killed were Kikuyus! Any remorse!

Do you remember Yebei the ICC witness who was supposed to testify against you in 2008 massacre and how you killed him and left him in Tsavo national park to be eaten by hyenas? Does that sound familiar and does it haunt you in your sleep!

His blood still haunts your evil soul! And do you remember Juma and how you shot him dead in the streets of Nairobi!? He was your best friend but you killed him over money (Fred)! Can Kenyans trust you Ruto? If you can kill a close friend, how about Kenyans themselves??

How about Musando and the list goes on and in! You have no business claiming that you are uniting Kenyans!

Your job is a killer Ruto! You are a guns for hire fir yourself @ruto! You know it, Rachel knows it, your kids know it, all Kenyans know it! You can’t be trusted Ruto!

There is a price to pay for the murders you have committed! You simply don’t unite people while you are still killing them at the same time. Shame on you Ruto!

Wrong!!!!!!! You are the most corrupt and therefore dangerous person in Kenya today. Everything you do is shady. Everyone you associate with is shady. God help us all if you ever become the president of this republic. It will mean massive corruption and shady characters from all over the world. God help us all.

Mountain residents seem to have alot of spokesmen but they pretend not to know muuaji Raila killed and cannibalized 1300 Kenyans,90% being AGikuyu.Savage Raila’s declaration of-WE MUST MAKE THIS COUNTRY UNGOVERNABLE resulted to the 1300 deaths.All so-called Mt Kenya leaders led by Kimani’s,Nyota,Mumbi,SABINA JOY etc campaigning for Raila have 350 days to loot as none will be re-elected.
