Thursday, June 13, 2024 - Embakasi East Member of Parliament Babu Owino has blasted President William Ruto and his Deputy, Rigathi Gachagua, for playing a con game on Kenyans with their alleged fallout.
According to Babu Owino, the
alleged rift between Ruto and Gachagua is a plot to win back the Mt Kenya
region.
Speaking yesterday, the ODM
legislator claimed that Ruto and Gachagua had lost favour among Kenyans, especially in the Mt Kenya region where they promised heaven but have failed
spectacularly.
He termed the perceived rivalry
as 'games and gimmicks' aimed at hoodwinking Kenyans, asserting that they would
work again together ahead of the 2027 General Election.
“President and his Deputy Gachagua are just playing games, there is no fight here.
"I want Kenyans to remember that these people are going to work together.
"They have lost favour in
the eyes of Kenyans, especially in the Mt Kenya region. I want to tell Kikuyus,
as Babu Owino, your son-in-law, be careful of these two musketeers,” Owino
warned.
"The war that is
purportedly fought now is to rally you behind one person so that you are
delivered later on back to the person who has the knife to chop off your
heads,” he added.
The President and his deputy
seem to be at loggerheads with a section of leaders in Kenya Kwanza terming the
latter a tribalist for pushing the Mt Kenya unity agenda.
The Deputy President further
escalated his woes after announcing he is a believer in the one man, one vote,
one shilling revenue-sharing formula that has created further division in the
ruling coalition.
