Thursday, February 29, 2024 – President William Ruto is not done with Azimio Leader Raila Odinga even if he manages to lobby for him to be elected the next African Union Commission Chairperson, going by what Baba himself has stated.
This is after Raila indicated
that he is going nowhere and would still play Kenyan politics even if he bags
the AU role if called upon contrary to Kenya Kwanza's expectation that he would
be gone and gone forever.
Speaking during the Homa Bay
investment conference yesterday, Raila allayed any fears that Ruto would be
trapping him with the support to get the AU job, adding that the opposition
would not be boxed into any plan.
"I am available. Whenever I
am called upon, I will answer. We are unbwogable (not scared). We
are unpangable (cannot be boxed into a plan)," he stated.
Raila’s remarks send Ruto to
the drawing board, considering his nefarious plans to tame Baba politically may
have just backfired badly on him.
At the same time, Raila urged
Ruto to relieve the pain Kenyans are going through by reducing taxation.
“Do not bog the people down with taxes and levies, rules and regulations that only make doing business more difficult.
"Make doing business not only easier but also cheaper. I encourage
you to make doing business matter by insisting on IT-based transactions,
particularly in the procurement of goods and services and payment of government
services,” he said.
