Duale accuses Uhuru of personal vendetta against Ruto, backs Kindiki for 2032 presidency
Kenya Kwanza leaders have continued to criticise retired President Uhuru Kenyatta, accusing him of undermining the administration and its development agenda. According to Duale, Uhuru lacks the capacity to influence the outcome of the 2027 polls if he failed to secure an opposition victory in the 2022 General Election, as per The Standard Kenya.
The leaders, including President William Ruto’s aide Farouk Kibet and National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang’ula, called on Uhuru to respect his position and allow the current administration to deliver on its mandate. They accused him of interfering in the affairs of the Kenya Kwanza government, urging him to desist from efforts to frustrate the administration, KBC reported.
Speaker Wetang’ula defended Ruto's potential second term, citing the long tenures of previous presidents, including Jomo Kenyatta, Daniel Arap Moi, and Mwai Kibaki. Meanwhile, Luo Council of Elders chairman Odungi Randa urged the Luo community to support President William Ruto’s bid for a second term, People Daily Kenya reported.
