Raila Backs President Uhuru's Call for Ruto to Resign

ODM leader Raila Odinga has backed President Kenyatta’s call for Deputy President William Ruto to resign.
Speaking during an interview with vernacular radio stations on Friday, Odinga accused Ruto of doublespeak, saying that he should quit the government if he is unhappy with the way it is being run.
He insisted that Kenyatta and Ruto were elected together and it is impossible for the deputy president to distance himself from the government when it is politically convenient.
“When things are not going your way, you should be principled and resign. Otherwise, future generations will judge you harshly,” said Odinga.
“This is not the first time we are facing such a situation. My father Jaramogi was not fired. He realized he was not assigned duties so he wrote his resignation to the president.”
Odinga spoke days after President Kenyatta challenged Ruto to resign if he felt unsatisfied with how the government is being run.
Uhuru faulted Ruto for criticizing the same government he is part of and, at the same time, taking credit for its achievements.
“The honorable thing is that if you are not happy is you step aside and allow those who want to move on, to move on. So that you can also take your agenda to the people. This is what happens in any normal democracy. You can’t have your cake and eat it,” Kenyatta stated.
Responding to Uhuru, Ruto said, “I have no space to retreat and I don’t have the luxury to surrender.”

Yaani savage Raila who kills 1300 Kenyans after defeat in a vote rigging competition with thug Mwai can demand jambazi Ruto to resign for nothing.Jamaa has cannibalized decayed brains that for three years he has not figured out Muigai is just buying time to finish his tenure.Previously Muigai was for trimming the bloated govt.He knows very well that no normal Kenyan can vote to expand the govt.But WaKanyugi Raila thinks AGikuyu are owned and controlled by the Kenyatta family.

I couldn’t agree more. All Ruto does is campaign on tax payers money. The guy collects a salary for doing nothing. He’s of course not going to resign, they should find something to impeach him on. Mike Pence stuck with 45 to the end. Ruto(hoe) ain’t loyal. Shout out to Chris Brown.

Very unprincipled man indeed! Ruto has huge psychological problems and he needs to be mentally evaluated! Hitler used to behave the same way Ruto is behaving prior to becoming the chancellor of Germany!
We all know how it all ended up with 6million Jews dead! That is nearly the whole kikuyu community killed under Ruto! And Ruto’s eyes are well trained on killing Kikuyus! Let’s be real and unanimously deny Ruto the chance to kill many in the near future!

Can’t, won’t resign coz he’s not an idiot. He knows he’s standing on a solid springboard for his political goals - he’s IN government. The more they call for his resignation, the more he gona dismiss their calls which are a desperation on their part.
I don’t support any of them though - Uhuru, Ruto & Raila should all go home wakafuge mbuzi

Ruto is not only double speaking, he is cunningly eating his own words by telling a bunch of fake lies! Ruto sincerely thinks Kenyans are very stupid and they can believe every nonsense he says!
We Kenyans see things (raids, railways, hospitals, industries, - all being build by Uhuru) getting done by Uhuru alone!
But Ruto comes around to tell a buddy nah of nonsensical lies that things were only done in the first 5 years of uhuruto! Ruto stole everything (Kimwerer an Arrow dams billions of shillings), Weston land, Muteshi land, drained treasury with Rotich where they were both taking billions in sacks to buy expensive helicopters, etc.
Does Ruto really thing we are that stupid!? Every corrupt criminal politician - Rigathi, wahome, Faith Gitau, Waititu, Sonko, Kihika, Kimani ngunjiri, ndindi nyoro, kihara the most of Baivasha, etc are the best friends with Ruto! They all run to the king of corruption @ruto for protection and cover! Is this the man Kenyans want for president?
Ruto has done everything criminal in kenya! No wonder he would not resign because he is guilty of everything and he wants to protect himself!
This muthafaka must resign or get impeached and put in jail fir his crimes!

Kenyans urging UMAVI.Some say Ruto is paid for nothing but none is challenging ”legal corruption” where by Uhuru and Ruto are paid shs 13m.per day each for JUBILEE ownership while muuaji Raila is paid shs 10m per day for ODM.Why aren’t you challenging the shs 2b loot they share daily?Why aren’t you challenging the 15% Wanjigi/Murathe procurement brokerage fee they all share etc?Why do you pay Uhuru,MPs/senators,governors,MCAs for looting?Why do you pay kina Raila-2m,Kilonzo,Mudavadi,Wetangula etc?
