The United Democratic Alliance Party has informed plans to stop Deputy President William Ruto from being President as allies call for the arrest of former Prime Minister Raila Odinga.
UDA Party Chairman Johnson Muthama has said that the state is desperate to stop Deputy President William Ruto’s statehouse bid extending that they have tried several means but have failed.
In a new move by the state to stop the Second in Command, Muthama has said that the move by activist Okiya Omtatah wanting DP Ruto to resign to run for the presidency is a state-sponsored move explaining that they will ensure it fails.
“The so-called ” Deep state and System” have tried all means possible to block William Ruto’s Presidency but have miserably failed. It started from; Lifestyle audit; Impeach the DP; Change of currency; Huduma number; The BBI and now they’re at “DP Ruto must resign. It will also fail,” Muthama has said.
The UDA National Chairman has said that what Kenyans should note is that “The Deputy President is not a civil servant and he’s not resigning. He was elected alongside the president and will serve until the last day of his term.”
The remarks from the UDA Chairman come as a section of DP Ruto allies has vowed to move t Court t have Raila Odinga arrested and charged for his swearing-in saying that he should be even blocked to run for President over a treason crime.
“Mr. Deputy President William Ruto, I have aligned a battery of lawyers to move to court and block Raila from vying for Presidency on August 2022,” Nominated MP David Sankok a close ally to DP Ruto said.
Adding that “Raila should not be allowed to join the Presidential race. He should be charged with treason for swearing-in himself in 2018 at Uhuru park.”
