Friday, February 25, 2022 – United Democratic Alliance (UDA) Chairman, Johnson Muthama, has thanked President Uhuru Kenyatta for choosing ODM Leader Raila Odinga over Deputy President William Ruto in the August presidential contest.
Speaking on Wednesday, Muthama stated that Ruto would have automatically lost the August 9, 2022, General Elections if President Uhuru Kenyatta had campaigned for him but thanks to Raila, that will not happen.
According to Muthama, Ruto stands a higher chance of becoming Kenya’s next president without Uhuru’s support.
He noted that Uhuru has a poor track record and thus if he campaigned for the DP, it would be hard to sell Ruto to voters.
At the same time, the former Machakos Senator blasted Uhuru for engaging in Raila’s campaigns instead of working to deliver Jubilee’s manifesto.
“If the current president walks around with Deputy President William Ruto selling him, Kenyans won’t buy him because his record is bad.
“He is not a person who can recommend someone and Kenyans buy him or the policies of that person.”
“How do you support a president who mobilises 3000 youth, takes them to State House and the message that comes from the Head of State is that of a choirmaster who is coaching those young people to sing yote yawezekana bila Ruto,” Muthama said in part.
