Ruto to Uhuru: My Government will Protect You When You Leave Office

President-elect William Ruto has assured President Kenyatta that his administration will protect and accord him the respect he deserves once leaves office.

Ruto noted that even though the president did not support his presidential bid, he harbors no grudge against him and will make sure he retires peacefully.

“We thank Uhuru for his contribution in steering the country to where it is. I want to assure him that he will have his respect and his place as our leader who will retire,” Ruto said.

The president-elect spoke during a thanksgiving service at PCEA Church in Githunguri, Kiambu County on Sunday where he thanked area residents for voting for him as opposed to Kenyatta’s preferred successor Raila Odinga.

“I appreciate that people of Mt Kenya have taken me as one of their sons. They have stood by me through thick and thin and buried ethnicity in the politics of Kenya. I am assuring you that I will not let you down,” he added.

At the same time, Ruto pledged to build on President Kenyatta’s legacy projects by completing unfinished ones, including the Big Four Agenda on food security, universal healthcare, manufacturing, and affordable housing.

“What we did together, we will build on that foundation and take our country forward. That which he didn’t complete we will complete including stalled projects which include roads, electricity and water,” Ruto said.

Which Uhuru?
The one he spent 5 years insulting & humiliating.
The Uhuru Kenyatta he wanted to slap?

That Uhuru Kenyatta?

Kweli. Kweli.
Uhuru Kenyatta should humiliate William Ruto the way William Ruto humiliated him.
It’s only fair.

Who humiliated who? Uhuru has incessantly harassed Ruto through & through. Best thing that happened is that William Kipchirchir Samoei Arap Ruto is the president of the Republic of Kenya. Take a breath & ponder that for a moment

HONGERA SANA NDUGU RAIS UHURU NGINA KAMAU

Nakuvulia kofia ya tarabushi kwa kuwa mnyenyekevu na pia mwenye moyo wa huruma na msamaha kwa Ndugu Samoei na pia Ndugu Raila.

NDUGU RAILA:

1. Sote twajua mambo ambayo alifanya mwaka wa 1982. Kama Ndugu Wafula Chebukati angalifanya kazi yake ipasavyo, Raila hangeruhusiwa kuwa kwenye ugombeaji wa urais nchini kulingana na Katiba yetu mpya Sura ya 6.

2. Huyu ndugu yetu (Raila) aliapishwa kuwa "Rais" wa watu na Ndugu Miguna Miguna. Sote twajua na kukumbuka yaliyompata Miguna. Kwa jambo kama hili, angalikuwa rais mwingine, Raila angenyongwa au kupata kifungo cha maisha. Wewe kama mtu mwenye huruma ulimsamehe halafu nyote wawili mkashirikiana pamoja kujenga taifa letu na kusahau yaliyotendeka hapo awali.

3. Siku wewe (Uhuru) ulipoungana na Samoei kushirikiana kugombea uongozi wa nchi, wewe ulisema wazi, "Kumi yangu na Kumi yako." Lakini ulipoona tabia za ajabu za Samoei, uliamua kubadilisha mawazo yako halafu ukakubali kumteua aliyekuwa mpinzani wako mkubwa Raila kugombea urais wa nchi. HONGERA SANA. Ni viongozi wachache sana duniani wangefanya jambo ulilofanya. Uliona ya kwamba, hata ingawa ulimwahidi Samoei atatawala Kenya miaka kumi kama wewe, baada ya kumchunguza kwa makini, uliona yeye hafai halafu ukabadilisha nia yako kumhusu. HONGERA SANA!

NDUGU SAMOEI:

1. Huyu ndugu yetu hakusoma historia ya Kenya na kujua ya kwamba baba yako hakufanya kazi vizuri na baba yake Raila. Kwa hiyo, Oginga alipoota pembe, alishikwa na kupelekwa jela halafu chama chake cha siasa KPU kikapigwa marufuku.

2. Samoei alikupinga vikali sana mpaka akakataa kusikiliza maoni yako ya kwamba awache kutangatanga. Ametangatanga kwa muda wa miaka minne bila kushirikiana nawe au kufanya kazi pamoja nawe. Kama angalikuwa rais mwingine, Samoei alipojitenga kutoka kwa chama cha siasa (JUBILEE) kilichompeleka bungeni na kuunda chama chake kipya UDA, ungalimshika mara moja, kumpeleka jela, na kupiga marufuku chama cha UDA. Kwa kuwa wewe una moyo wa utu, hukusema chochote naye akafikiri ya kwamba kunyamaza kwako kulimpa nguvu afanye siasa miaka minne bila kufanya kazi kama makamu wa rais ipasavyo na ahuku akaendelea kupata mshahara wake na pia marupurupu yote..

3. Kwa muda wa miaka minne, Samoei ametumia ulinzi wa serikali, mali ya umma kusomea shahada yake ya uzamivu (PhD) na huku anapata mshahara wake bila kukupa heshima hata kidogo kama rais wa nchi. Wafuasi wake wamekutuna hadharani. Mfuasi wake mmoja alitengeneza vidiyo klipu na kumtukana mamaa yako kinyume cha mila zetu za asili. Ndugu Samoei ametumia "utu" wako na unyenyekevu wako kujijenga kisiasa mpaka mahali alipofika sasa.

4. Sisi sote twajua ya kwamba wazee, watoto, na akina mama 37 walichomewa katika kanisa la Kiambaa huko Eldoret. Mpaka sasa, hakuna hata mtu mmoja aliyeshikwa na kupelekwa mahakamani na kuhukumiwa ipasavyo. Kwa nini Ndugu Samoei hajajishughulisha kuwanasa wote waliohusika na janga hilo? Kwa nini Wafula Chebukati alimpa nafasi ya kugombea urais kinyume cha Katiba yetu Mpya Sura ya 6?

Mwishowe, nakuomba uendelee na kuwa na utu ulio nao sasa na kujitahidi kujenga Jumba la Makumbusho (museum) mahali kanisa la PCEA lilipokuwa hapo Kiambaa, Eldoret ili watu wasije wakasahau wote waliochomewa humo kanisani hasa watoto wadogo waliokufa bila kuelewa sababu ya kifo chao.

I will repeat again what I had already said, there will be no meaningful changes. We all know the pact Uhuru had with Raila. Ruto had already said what he said yesterday.
The Hyenas drink from the same cup. But, given that we're headed to the supreme court, Ruto has to play soft.
Uhuru and Raila will try and go for a recount that way they can manipulate the votes. They don't want a rerun.
Now, Uhuru and Raila will use any means possible to make sure that Raila gets in.
But, like on my other comments, Ruto will outsmart them again.

Comrade Jane,
You're right, Uhuru won't need protection, because by law,he will have security. But, if Rutos government goes after graft, Uhuru and goons are screwed.
Think about it, after Moi left office, all of us knows how him and goons milked Kenya, the murders, torture etc, but was he ever charged? Were his goons charged?
Now, this is the protection Ruto is talking about. Protecting their ill gotten gains.
Uhuru can afford body guards 24 7, but he can't protect what his family has stolen with out the current government being involved.

This muthafaka ruto can surely lie. Do you think Uhuru as stupid as you are Ruto? You would literally kill Uhuru given a chance. You are a very stupid man wsr.

Shame on you WSR for being an idiot. Who told you Uhuru wants you to protect him? We will smoke you out of Sugoi if you mess with Uhuru.

Stab/Ndunga/Gatheca is named after expired GAKUNIA/NGATI/KOMERERA Muhuhu,Ngina’s father.Some hungry billionaire fools are behaving like GAKUNIA Gatheca who might have got share dividends or some thousands of grabbed land by Kenyatta family.Jambazi Ruto can protect his looting comrade,Uhuru but the bloody revolution won’t recognize their stolen properties.All these magathia will face the firing squad.

Only those who were born 10 years and earlier and haven't read Kenya's history can believe these TOTAL LIES. The experience of Moi , the assumptions of Njonjo when Jomo died are still fresh in our minds Bw. Ruto. There could be a special way to pass your message but not hii kiherehere.

Some of us will be very glad when these maneno ya elections is over till 2027. It seems like there is nothing else taking place in Kenya but politics. In the meantime, a mother at Pumwani Hospital lost her baby due to lack of enough incubators, a four-storey building collapsed in Kasarani killing 9 people because construction materials used were substandard.
