Ruto vows to use all means to stop Azimio leader Raila Odinga after the coalition announced three days of protests.
President William Ruto has vowed to stop Raila Odinga from using Kenyan blood to advance his political ambitions.
Speaking on Friday in Naivasha, Ruto swore to stop the opposition leader by whatever means necessary.
“Raila Odinga, I won’t allow you to seek power on the back of the blood of Kenyans. I will stop you,” he said.
Ruto also called out Raila for employing unconstitutional means to get into the government, insisting that it will not happen.
Ruto has previously reiterated his stand that there will never be a handshake with Raila.
“You can’t use extra-constitutional means to get power. You want to use violence to get into government; it won’t happen,” he added.
“No demonstration is going to take place on Wednesday. It is not possible, this man (Raila Odinga)has brought chaos to this country which has led to many deaths. He kept on interfering with Mwai Kibaki’s administration, Uhuru Kenyatta’s and now the other day he led protests and properties were destroyed,” Ruto said.
“That path that you are taking, I want to assure you that I am going to take you on and I will not allow it to happen.”
