Ruto-Raila secret deals
- Thread starter ChifuMbitika

Ruto and Raila cannot work together, they are both hyper, Ruto is ripe for presidency right now, he is what I would call the Raila of 2000s. Can he play a second fiddle again to Raila after playing that role for two terms to Uhuru? I don't think so. Can Raila accepted the deputy president role when pairing with Ruto? I don't think so. History has taught us that being vice/deputy president is a thankless job, when your time comes to go for the top seat you are always sabotaged by your boss (outgoing president)
Why would Ruto want to work with Raila? Mimi naona Ruto has Mt Kenya, RV, pastoral communities, he had made significant forays in Western and Coast. Ruto sioni akishindwa kwa ballot unless they ensure he doesn’t get there. Raila analeta nini kwa table? And as someone has said, who will accept to deputize the other?
Anything is possible in Kenya, don't rule out any alignments. We were told a few years that we will throw WSR under the bus. We refuted this vehemently as we did not see things that way. FF what do we see as of today? Cursed be the days we voted a Kenyatta twice tho we had no choice given the other option.
Kenya is at crossroads at the moment and only the Lord can save the common man.

Uko sure hiyo 7M bado iko? He has lost his allies. Like my Bungoma County where he got about 300k votes in 2017, out of the 9 MPigs, like 7 have been walking with Ruto, RAO has zero local leader speaking for him during funerals and other gatherings. Kakamega where he got almost 500k, only governor Oparanya (because he hopes to inherit ODM), no single MPig wote wako kwa Ruto na MDVD. How will RAO get the 1.2M votes he got from Western in 2017? Ukambani na Coast same story.
Raila should tread carefully,he has lost ground venye @Rubeni says.I suspect it benefits those seeking lower positions more if they push Raila to go it alone as ODM than embracing coalitions.
Someone vying as MCA MP senator governor has better chances of clinching a seat if ODM is alone but not Raila and the presidency.
ODM was strongest in 2007 because it accomodated nearly all voting blocks under chungwa, different voting blocks left,to make it great again means a coalition or purchase and dissolve smaller parties.
Reading the last 2 editions of the Sunday Nation newspaper on land grabbing by the dynasty leaves me knowing we lost our footing as a nation very early from independence and the sooner we have a no nonsense dictator in power the better for our country .Ofcourse I have my preferences of presidency currently but our love for money distorts even the cleanest mind.
