Elgeyo Marakwet Senator Kipchumba Murkomen has alleged that one of Deputy President William Ruto’s mandate will be restoring dignity in his current office once he becomes the president.
Taking to his social media accounts on Friday August 27, 2021, the former senate majority leader weighed into the mistreatment DP Ruto is currently facing.
DP Ruto who has hence fallen out with President Kenyatta has been neglected in government, with the head of state recently daring him to resign over his continued criticism of the government.
President Kenyatta during an interview with media editors early this week told DP Ruto to consider quitting if he was unhappy with the government he is serving.
However, Murkomen argued that the second in command has just a number of days left before he finishes his term as Deputy President of the republic of Kenya.
Murkomen now claims that even as the government operatives continue undermining the DP’s office, Ruto will restore the dignity of the office once elected Kenya’s 5th President in 2022.
The vocal lawmaker claims that God is preparing DP Ruto to treat his deputy better and with dignity.
“HE William Ruto has only 346 days 17 hours &35 minutes in the office of the Deputy President.Even if you undermine the office&the institution,HE Ruto will restore the dignity of that office when his Deputy will be IN.God is preparing him to treat his Deputy better&with dignity,” tweeted Murkomen.
Murkomen’s remarks come just a day after government withdrew GSU officers manning DP Ruto’s Karen residence and replaced them with AP police officers.
The motive of the change of DP Ruto’s security detail is not however, clear even as Kenyans continue linking the move to 2022 succession politics.
