Deputy President William Ruto has alleged that Raila Odinga’s mission in the US visit is to foil his Presidential bid in 2022.
Raila travelled to the US on Thursday night. He addressed a high-powered audience at the Centre for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, DC.
But the DP on Thursday suggested the former Prime Minister and Kenya’s opposition leader was on a mission to sabotage his 2022 bid for State House.
“So,Tinga went all the way to the USA to seek support to scuttle the possibility of a son of peasant from being elected prezo in 2022!Balaa!,” wrote the DP on his twitter page.
And in fast response, some Jubilee honchos echoed Ruto’s assertion.
Kikuyu MP Kimani Ichung’wa led the pack. He said: “He has a problem with jubilee holding onto power legitimately thru the ballot too! Let him watch this space to 2022 & Beyond.”
Abdi Noor tweeted: “In 1997, I watched as the son of the peasant was being elected in Eldoret. Hope to be alive in 2022 as he is sworn in as President.”
Atanas said: “Hello William, the only option for finishing Mr. Tinga politically is by not allowing the formation of Interim Government “Mkate Nusu”… We won this thing. Boflo tunachukua roho safi. Let Tinga go and rest in Political Oblivion and watch Arap Ruto ascend to the Statehouse 2022.”
Mashaa: “Kaa Ngumu, Ruto has earned his place 2022,tuko pamoja. Raila should forget it.: “
Bitok Kim Tim: “Tinga is just but a Confused Gecko, You have this come 2022 Sir.”
However, NASA supporters reproached the DP for his sentiments some telling him to forget the support of Kikuyus in 2022.
“So you still think @UKenyatta will endorse you come 2022, amka ukojoe urudi ulale,” said the Obok.
“And you think the Kikuyu nation will support you in 2022?? You will be back to beg for votes take it to the bank,” said Obondo Churchil.
“USA hakuna shamba unaweza nyakwaa baba abby leave tinga alone,” tweeted H.E Collo Mwenyewe.
“Nope.. The Kikuyu community will make sure State house is a pipe dream to you Mr. Let us revisit this tweet in 22’” said G Marete.
