Legislators allied to Deputy President Dr William Ruto seem to have already started issuing warnings that Ruto’s team is carefully profiling people opposed to his candidature.
In his remarks on Sunday, Nandi Senator Samson Cherargei seemed to conclude that those opposed to Dr Ruto will face unspecified consequences should he win in 2022.
He accused unnamed people of causing havoc against the DP, adding that Tanga Tanga has already marked them for retaliation in 2022.
“Let me finish by saying, those people who have continued to fight DP William Ruto, we are profiling you. When you are fighting the deputy president, you are fighting us.
“Don’t think that the DP does not have his supporters. We see here. Continue abusing him but know that we are marking and profiling you. When that time comes, we shall deal with you. He also have his people, don’t joke,”he said.
Dr Ruto is one of the front runners for 2022 polls. On Sunday in Meru, he said that he’s ready to tackle opposition leader Raila Odinga, who has however not declared interest.
Mr Odinga dismissed an article by Sunday Nation which claimed that he’s contesting. He has since given the publication 24 hours to issue an apology.
Nyeri Town MP Ngunjiri Wambugu took issues with Cherargei’s remarks, demanding to know the people Ruto’s team is targeting in 2022.
