Vocal Ruto Allied MP Spells Doom For Raila’s 2022 Presidency

written by Mustafa Juma

Deputy President William Ruto allied Member of Parliament has spelled doom for ODM Party leader Raila Odinga’s 2022 presidency.

Speaking during a panel discussion on Citizen TV’s Daybreak on Tuesday morning, Uasin Gishu Women Representative Gladys Boss Shollei said it was highly unlikely that Raila would become president in 2022.

This, according to her, is based on Raila’s knack of losing in the polls.

“Raila has made his mark in history, he is a formidable politician but there is something wrong with his strategy, I’m very sure in 2022, he will not win the election, period!” She said.

Shollei further claimed that Raila won his first election but only with the backing of the entire Rift Valley and William Ruto.

“It is my personal opinion that Raila Odinga did win the 2007 election and guess who was behind him, Dr. William Samoei Ruto and the whole of Rift Valley, that’s how he won…” She added.

She further accused Raila of short-changing Kenyans by telling them that Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) is not about leadership positions.

“Raila Odinga has said it (BBI) is not about positions, he is lying, it is about positions, we have been talking about the Prime Minister position, we are creating positions instead of addressing pertinent issues.

Her statements come just a day after Raila said that the BBI is not geared at making him the president in 2022, or President Uhuru Kenyatta the Prime Minister.

We Have Been Hired to Kill You, Tanga Tanga MP Reveals The Message Sent to Her by Hired Hitmen

by Mustafa Juma
written by Mustafa Juma

A Tanga Tanga lawmaker has come out to reveal the message she was allegedly sent by people she believes to be hired hitmen.

The Kandara MP Alice Wahome reiterates that her life is still in danger following threatening calls and messages she had received and circumstances surrounding the withdrawal of her security in January.

While speaking during K24’s Punchline show hosted by Anne Kiguta, Wahome claimed that threats to her life were linked to her firm political stand and her remarks which she directed at President Uhuru Kenyatta in a presser on January 2.

“I believe my life is in danger because of the events surrounding the withdrawal of my security after the new year when I issued a press statement. I think the statement made very many people in the political sector uncomfortable possibly because of the things I said regarding our economy, adherence to the constitution, including the limitation of the term of the President and whether he can run again or extend his term,” she said.

She also stated that her press conference triggered many other individuals within her Kandara constituency and Murang’a county to issue attacks through the media, which according to her, were being organised and financed by a higher authority.

The vocal legislator went on to reveal that she became aware that she was a marked woman when she received two mysterious phone calls in December last year.

“Around December I received two phone calls. One did not go through, another one went off (but) when I took the third call, the caller said that he had been asked to kill me by some politicians from Nairobi,” Wahome said.

“He then sent me a text, but I didn’t take it seriously then until my security was withdrawn.”

Wahome, who is allied to the Tangatanga faction of Jubilee Party which supports Deputy President William Ruto’s 2022 bid for the presidency, divulged that the hitman specifically said that they had been hired to kill her.

However, when asked whether she answered back, the MP said she hadn’t but had put it as a statement in Kandara.

She also revisited a January 15 incident in which she claimed that hired goons and university students had been ferried to disrupt her event as she issued bursary cheques in the constituency.

“There was a major attempt to disrupt the bursary ceremony. Over 22 students from the University of Nairobi and MK were ferried to the scene to cause chaos but they were arrested. It was after this incident that I started seeing issues and the people who made the statement made it clear that they would not allow me to continue with my work and issue press conferences. Of course, they can’t do that!” Wahome added.

written by Mustafa Juma

Deputy President William Ruto has spoken after an Administrative Police attached to his Harambee Annex office was on Thursday February 20, 2020 found dead in his house in Imara Daima, Nairobi.

The police officer identified as Sergent Kipyegon Kenei, was on duty at the DP’s office the day former Sports Cabinet Secretary Rashid Echesa and two foreigners entered the Harambee Annex office to strike a Ksh 39 billion fake firearms deal.

DP Ruto through a tweet remarked that the death of the man was a huge loss.

He further noted that he knew Kenei on a professional level and was shocked by the turn of events.

The second in command called for the DCI to look into the matter to find justice for the slain officer.

“Deeply saddened by the death of Police Sergent Kipyegon Kenei who worked in my Harambee House Annex Office. Kenei was a disciplined young police officer. I urge the relevant authorities to conduct a thorough investigation to ascertain the circumstances surrounding his death,” read the tweet.

The demise of the officer came after a manhunt had been launched by the DCI Kinoti led team.

The body of the deceased was found at his house in Imara Daima.

Police reports pointed out that the man committed suicide after he shot himself.

On Wednesday, DP Ruto had written to Inspector General of Police Hillary Mutyambai over his safety.

According to Ruto, the breach of security at his office by Echesa and his men together with the foreigners, had put his life in danger.

The DP had also argued that Interior CS Fred Matiang’i should make investigations into the two foreigners.

Through his Chief of Staff, Ken Osinde, the DP wanted the visa issued to the Europeans reviewed.

It is reported that Matiang’i and the Head of Immigrations Service Alex Muteshi did not respond to the incident.

In addition, Ruto wanted the alleged outsiders to be detained until the case is determined by the relevant authorities.

Ruto Reveals Why Kenya is Yet to Win War Against Corruption

by Mustafa Juma
written by Mustafa Juma

Deputy President William Ruto has come out to air his concerns on why the country is yet to win the war against corruption.

Taking to his popular social media site on Tuesday night, Ruto, who feels to have been targeted by every corruption scandal in the country observed that it was so easy for Kenya to win the war if only it concentrates on certain things.

Despite recognising the efforts put in place by the government to curb the menace, Ruto indicated that all will be in vain as long as the agencies put in place continues to fight RUTO instead.

The DP urged them to concentrate their efforts on fighting the real thing instead of always dragging his name into every corruption case.

“It is very easy to win the fight against CORRUPTION. Why are we not winning yet? Because we’re not fighting CORRUPTION, We are fighting”RUTO”. Can we focus a little bit on the real thing?” posed Ruto.

Ruto added that for Kenya to move forward as a nation, politics of targeting individuals in the name of fighting corruption should stop.

“To win the war on corruption, we must rely on factual information and stop politics from clouding it. To move forward as a country, selective prosecution targeting predetermined individuals and projects steamrolled by a narrative of convenient lies, falsehood and propaganda is not a fight against corruption. It is politics and is headed in the wrong direction,” he stated.

His utterances comes days after his office was dragged into the fake arms scandal involving former Sports CS Rashid Echesa.

So far, DP’s office has distanced itself from the claims that it was being used to defraud businessmen in the fake arms deal.

William Ruto’s spokesman David Mugonyi rubbished the claims saying DPs office was a public office that is accessed by many people. The office has insisted that the DP was not in the Annex office on the day it is reported that Echesa accessed it.

Echesa was arrested on Thursday last week in an investigation into a Sh39 billion fake tender deal to supply the government with military surveillance equipment, guns, and ammunition.

These are long-time personal aide of the DP Farouk Kibet, Chief of Staff Ken Osinde and Private Secretary Reuben Maiyo.

Echesa who was arrested on Thursday last week was on Monday released on a Sh1 million cash bail amid investigations into the Sh40 billion arms fraud case involving American organisations, Echo Advanced Technologies.

Ruto Comes Out Clean on The Day Echesa Allegedly Defrauded Foreigners From His Office

by Mustafa Juma
written by Mustafa Juma

Deputy President William Ruto has finally come out clean fake military arms tender that was allegedly procured from his Harambee Annex office.

In a statement issued on Monday evening by his communication office, DP Ruto distanced himself from the scandal in which former Sports Cabinet Secretary Rashid Eachesa is largely involved.

Ruto says he was not in the office when Echesa and two other foreigners visited his office.

The DP has also stated that Echesa lacked an appointment with him on the material day when they visited his office to ‘seal the deal.’

When Echesa and company got wind that DP Ruto was working from his Karen home instead of Harambee Annex, they bolted out of the reception according to DP’s statement.

The group had been holed up inside the Annex office between 9:39 and 10:02, making it a total of 23 minutes.

Echesa has since been released on a Ksh1 million bail together with Clifford Okoth Onyango, Daniel Otieno Omondi and Kennedy Oyoo Mboya.

DP Ruto said his office has been cooperating with detectives drawn from Directorate of Criminal Investigations and that all the CCTV footages had been made available for review.

On February 15, DCI detectives raided the houses of Echesa where they recovered two guns and more than a hundred rounds of ammunition.

Kitui County governor Charity Ngilu has revealed another victim of fraudulent activities allegedly happening from Deputy President William Ruto’s office.

Ngilu on Sunday evening issued a statement listing some of the fraudulent activities that have previously happened in the office of the second in command.

How Echesa Used CS Monica Juma’s Signature to Cut The Fraudulent Multi-Billion Deal

by Mustafa Juma
written by Mustafa Juma

Former Sports Cabinet Secretary Rashid Echesa is no longer new to controversies! Or is he?

Well, after his arrest on Thursday, details have emerged of how the former ODM party youth leader used the office of Deputy President Dr William Ruto and Defence Cabinet Secretary Monica Juma’s signature to strike a multi-billion fraudulent deal.

According to The Standard, Echesa is said to have used the Office of the Deputy President and the signature of the Defence Cabinet Secretary to cut the fraudulent multi-billion-shilling deal to supply military surveillance equipment and guns.

The complainant, who is an American based in Poland, told the police Echesa approached them through e-mail, introducing himself as a Kenyan politician who would hook them up with a lucrative Sh39.5 billion tender.

The complainant said Echesa summoned the directors of the company into the country and had a meeting at a Nairobi hotel in the presence of people dressed in military uniforms, one of them introducing himself to the investors as a general who would be the user of the military equipment to be supplied to the Department of Defence.

The directors then arranged a trip for Echesa and three others to Poland, the headquarters of the company to inspect the surveillance equipment.

It is here that he said he would receive Sh52 million upon the signing of the contract after allegedly approving the standards of the equipment.

The victims told the police that they were on Thursday shocked to establish the man who identified himself as a military general was dressed in a suit this time round.

They also said they never got to meet the Deputy President despite Echesa promising that the contract would be signed in his presence.

What baffled investigators is that the fictitious tender document found both in the Office of the Deputy President and in Echesa’s car, bore the signature of CS Juma, among other senior ministry officials.

Forensic investigations on the signatures have been launched as part of the probe.

“The Meru BBI rally on 29th February will be the best so far.

VIDEO: Kila Mtu Afanye Kazi Yake na Tuheshimiane, Ruto Hits Back at Uhuru

by Mustafa Juma
written by Mustafa Juma

Deputy President William Ruto has hit back at President Uhuru Kenyatta, who on Friday swore to stop sending representatives to launch projects on his behalf, saying they had failed him.

Uhuru’s statement was subtly directed at Ruto, who had launched the last mile connectivity project in Nyandarua county, only for it to stall.

”I came here to see myself whether the people in this region had been connected to the national grid as alleged by the people I had sent here…why are they not yet connected? I will not be sending people anymore, I will come by myself,” an angry Uhuru said while addressing residents of Nyandarua.

A defiant Ruto, however, on Sunday, maintained that he would continue flagging off development projects around the country since that was part of his job description, as deputy president.

”Hiyo kazi nitafanya na bidii. Hii ya barabara…na ya maji, na ya stima, na ya kusomesha watoto wetu…kwa sababu kazi ya deputy president ni hiyo nafanya (I will work even harder to steer roads, water, electricity, and education programs….what I am doing is the work of the deputy president)” the politician said during a church function in Kisii.

Ruto added that defamatory utterances could no longer fool Kenyans, as they are intelligent enough to observe who has delivered in his/her docket, and who has not.

”Wananchi wako na akili. Watajua ni nani wa kufanya kazi, na ni nani wa kupiga story (Kenyans are an intelligent lot. They can decipher who is a hard worker and who is a busy body),” the DP said.

”Tulikubaliana Kenya wajinga waliisha (We all agreed that there are no longer fools in Kenya),” he added.

He further asked his fellow politicians to stop interfering with his work as the second in command.

”Kuna mtu analalamika hapa DP anafanya kazi yake? Iko mtu analalamika nimefanya kazi yake? (Is there anyone who can claim that I am doing his job?),” the irate deputy head of state sarcastically posited.

He was speaking during the consecration of Reverend Joseph Omwoyo Ombasa, as the Bishop of Evangelical Lutheran Church in Kenya.

Ruto Responds to Moses Kuria’s Harassment by Goons During Kitui BBI Rally

by Mustafa Juma
written by Mustafa Juma

Deputy President William Ruto has broken his silence following the brutality that Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria faced during a BBI rally in Kitui on Saturday.

The second in command has called upon leaders to take an inclusivity approach to Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) politics.

Speaking during the consecration of the second Diocesan Bishop, Rev Joseph Omwoyo Ombasa, in Kisii, Ruto termed the use of brutal force against individuals with differing opinions as primitive.

”Nataka niwaulize viongozi hao wengine wote, tuwache makelele na fujo na ubabe na mambo hayo ambayo yanaturudisha nyuma (my appeal to all leaders is that they should stop bickering, using excessive force and dictatorship, among other backward practices),” Ruto said.

He preached the message of honorable dialogue, insisting on the need to hear out all opinions, on matters of national discourse.

‘‘Kama ni mjadala mnafanya tuweke heshima, tuweke ungwana, tusikize yale yanasemekana na mtu yeyote, humpendi, unampenda (On matters of national interest, let us take a respectful approach and hear each other out, whether you like a particular person or not),” the DP added.

He further called for an equitable dialogue platform, terming all views as imperative.

”Hakuna maoni yanayozidi maoni mengine (there is no opinion that is superior to the other),” the emotional deputy head of state said.

He noted that ongoing BBI discussion should not be reserved for a particular group of people, rather, it should be opened up to all, including the common mwananchi. 

Kuria was on Saturday almost driven out of the venue of a BBI rally, where ODM leader Raila Odinga was in attendance, after area governor Charity Ngilu, asserted that people who were disrespectful to President Uhuru Kenyatta were not welcome at the event.

It is only after the crowd intervened that Kuria was allowed back into the rally.

Tangatanga Members Change Tune on BBI Days After Uhuru Summoning Ruto to State House

by Mustafa Juma
written by Mustafa Juma

There is confusion in Jubilee’s Tanga Tanga faction over their stand on Building Bridges Initiative (BBI).

The Deputy President Dr William Ruto allied lawmakers led by Senate Majority leader Kipchumba Murkomen on Friday changed their tune on BBI again, making another major declaration.

Just a few days ago, Tanga Tanga members announced the beginning of their own BBI rallies after their Naivasha retreat.

They announced that the first rally will be held in Nakuru County on February 8, 2020.

They outlined that the ongoing rallies spear-headed by handshake partner Raila Odinga have proved to be politically inclined.

However, the group has changed their tune, announcing that they will not be having their parallel rallies again.

The DP Ruto’s allies led by Senator Murkomen have now vowed to attend all BBI rallies across the country, dropping their intentions to run parallel events.

This comes days after President Uhuru Kenyatta summoned Ruto to State House over the Parallel BBI Rallies.

President Uhuru on Monday, January 27, summoned his deputy William Ruto at State House, Nairobi, and gave him a dressing down over parallel BBI meetings planned by the DP’s allies.

The head of state read a riot act to Ruto expressing his displeasure at the persistent attempts by the DP’s lieutenants to frustrate efforts of uniting Kenyans through the BBI, which is a brainchild of the March 9, 2018, handshake Uhuru had with ODM party leader Raila Odinga.

My Relationship With Raila is Unstoppable, Uhuru Tells Ruto to His Face

by Mustafa Juma
written by Mustafa Juma

President Uhuru Kenyatta has told his Deputy Dr William Ruto that his relationship with ODM party leader Raila Odinga is unstoppable.

His message to the DP was issued in a closely guarded meeting between the two leaders on Monday afternoon at State House.

According to People’s Daily, the President is said to have summoned his deputy in the morning, but the meeting did not start until after two hours of Ruto’s arrival at State House, Nairobi, where none of the officials present were willing to confirm the talks.

Sources who spoke to the local daily revealed that the President told Ruto to his face that he has to stop the insubordination as well as frustrating his (Uhuru’s) unity efforts.

“He (Uhuru) told the DP that if he thought he was going to stop him from working with Raila in the unity bid he was daydreaming,” a source was quoted by the local daily.

The revelations come barely a day after President Uhuru, while addressing a gathering in Bahati Nakuru, emphasized that his course to unite the county apparently through the BBI was unstoppable.

The president in a bold declaration said the path of bringing the country together is one of his key plans as he serves his last term and no one will tell him otherwise.

“I will not be stopped in my bid to unite the country. That is the position I have taken moving forward in that direction. I want to ensure Kenyans remain peaceful during and after General Elections every five years,” said Uhuru.

The developments come in the wake of looming tension in the county after Tanga Tanga leaders allied to Deputy President William Ruto announced parallel rallies to that led by the ODM leader and his allies.

The Ruto-allies despite announcing earlier that they will be a party to each rally led by the ODM leader made a sudden u-turn after there Naivasha meeting saying they had decided to hold different rallies to reinforce on the already scheduled ones.

A group of MPs sensationally claimed yesterday their colleagues allied to DP Ruto were plotting to impeach President Kenyatta.

Addressing the press at the Parliament Buildings, the 32 legislators from the Kieleweke faction of Jubilee and ODM claimed Ruto allies were out to oust the President because they were unhappy with his Handshake deal with Raila and its resultant Building Bridges Initiative (BBI).

The legislators, who included the Leader of Minority in the National Assembly John Mbadi, Minority Whip Junet Mohammed and Kieni MP Kanini Kega, were reacting the Naivasha retreat meeting by Tanga Tanga.
