Thursday, November 28, 2024 – Makueni Senator Dan Maanzo has sensationally claimed that President William Ruto is not in charge of Kenya anymore.
In an interview, Maanzo stated that former Prime Minister Raila Odinga holds the real power in Kenya today.
According to him, Raila is politically in charge, with President Ruto relying on him to manage the nation's affairs.
“Right now, Ruto’s government is
hanging onto Raila’s lips. It is Raila who is in charge of this country right
now, politically,” Maanzo claimed.
The Wiper Senator made these
comments while condemning Ruto’s recent visit to Kondele, Kisumu on
November 26, where he received a rousing reception from the area residents.
Even so, Maanzo dismissed Ruto’s
visit, claiming that the crowd was financially incentivized by people like
Kisumu Senator Tom Ojienda to turn up, adding that the funds could have been
used to promote infrastructural development.
Maanzo further challenged Ruto
to do more for Raila’s African Union Chairmanship (AUC) bid by injecting more
funds into the bid.
He also called for Ruto to
increase lobbying amongst other African presidents to aid Raila.
“The money that Ruto used in going to Kisumu if he really wanted to help Raila, he could have used it to go to West Africa where Raila currently is.
"In the AUC race, the voters are
presidents. Only President Ruto protocally can approach presidents of Africa to
campaign for Raila,” Maanzo affirmed.
“Now you find Raila going to
these foreign countries to meet foreign ministers and prime ministers without
meeting presidents wasting time and money,” he added.
