Kalonzo narrates how Ruto frustated him including withdrawing his wife’s car upon becoming DP
Kalonzo narrates how Ruto frustated him including withdrawing his wife’s official car upon becoming Deputy President in 2013.
The leader of the Wiper Party, Kalonzo Musyoka has claimed that Deputy President William Ruto masterminded a conspiracy to withdraw his wife’s official car after the Jubilee administration took office in 2013.
The plan, according to Kalonzo, who spoke with reporters on Thursday, August 4, was to frustrate him for having backed former Prime Minister Raila during the 2013 General Election.
The leader of the Wiper party further said that the DP made sure that no one from his community got very high posts in the Uhuru-Ruto administration.
He clarified, however, that President Uhuru Kenyatta had no issues with him and was not involved in the plot.
“When the Jubilee government took over, my wife lost her official state car. In 2013 when Ruto got into power he made sure my wife lost her car. He is very conniving and heartless.
“He went for her car instead of mine and made sure Kamba community did not get any seats in Cabinet apart from CS Monica Juma,” he stated.
In response to losing former Nairobi governor, Mike Sonko, to Ruto’s team, the Wiper party boss indicated that Sonko’s candidature was frustrated in Azimio, however, he maintained that they were in pole position to win the presidency.
Kalonzo also hit out at Ruto adding that the Kenya Kwanza leader would have helped the former governor to get cleared if he really cared about him.
The Wiper party leader also responded to Sonko’s move to join Ruto’s team Kenya Kwanza.
He claimed that Mike Sonko’s candidature.
Kalonzo also criticized Ruto, saying that if the Kenya Kwanza leader had truly cared about the former governor, he would have worked to exonerate him.
“Sonko acted out of anger and I understand him but this is not the end. As Chief Minister, I will get Sonko cleared even without the by-election due to the appeal at the East African Community Court.
“There are so many narratives even stories about Americans not wanting to see Sonko in high seats and that is wrong,” he stated.
Kalonzo has recently differed with the DP over his remarks regarding his chief minister position in Azimio with Ruto claiming that Kalonzo was being duped by the ODM boss.
