Kimani Ichung'wah tells President William Ruto to "shake off the viper on your hand" in an attack aimed on DP Gachagua

Kimani Ichung’wah tells President William Ruto to “shake off the viper on your hand” in an attack aimed on DP Gachagua.

Speaking during a church service in Embakasi West, Nairobi County, Ichung’wah cited an excerpt from the Bible and likened it to the hurdles President Ruto is facing under his leadership.

“When we read in the book of Acts 3:28 that when Apostle Paul got to Malta with a shipwreck and many people swam to the shore and as they were putting up the fire, as you read all the way to 27, a snake twirled around his hand,” said Ichung’wah. 

“Looking at that story I have seen how the President has gone through alot, he found an economy in a wreck, and just when he was ready to warm up Kenyans a viper comes and coils itself on his hand.”

The Kikuyu Member of Parliament (MP) therefore urged the president to ignore his political nemesis and focus on delivering his ambitious promises.

“Take heart. All the names you will be called, all the insults you will receive, just get this country to the shore safely,” he said.

“Don’t be afraid, shake off the snake. That viper on your hand, the viper, the snake in your government, please shake it off. Not for your own sake so that it doesn’t bite you. Shake it off so that your hand may do what the Lord purposed that hand to do.”

Ichung’wah has repeatedly called out individuals whom he has said have been impeding President Ruto from achieving progress in his government.

The legislator has been seemingly going after Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua’s jugular as tensions continue to rise on the murky politics of the Mt Kenya region.

For weeks now, he has been making fiery statements against “leaders who seek to segregate a nation based on tribe, colour, religion” whom he has linked to the political clamour in the region.

This comes amid rumours that DP Gachagua has been rallying leaders from the region for his support, claiming that there is a scheme by some individuals to convince President William Ruto to throw him under the political bus.
