The Kibaki Succession: Ruto Factor

Will William Samoei Ruto turn out to be the ultimate kingmaker in the 2013 presidential election? Activities on the political front during the last few weeks seen to suggest so...Ruto has become the most sought after political figure by the key players in the Kibaki succession contest. Offers have been dangled his way, with Prime Minister Raila Odinga, Deputy Prime Ministers Uhuru Kenyatta and Musalia Mudavadi, as well as Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka scrambling for a deal with Ruto ahead of the march 2013 race to state house. Francis Gachuri examines the Ruto factor in this week's edition of Kibaki Succession.

    "Some people believe that people from Central Kenya will not vote for William Ruto; they will be in for a rude shock." ~William Ruto...How prophetic his words have come to pass in 2022!!!

    Of all these political players....Raila, Kalonzo, Musalia, Uhuru.....notice that William Ruto is the only one who is truly the son of a nobody. He is not from any royal family like all the rest. He has struggled, hustled, fought and manoeuvred every inch on his way to the top. He his truly an inspiration to every Kenyan who knows this exact struggle. To lift yourself from the bottom to greatness. The rich kids in Kenya have no idea, but we ordinary Kenyans know this life. Congratulations president WSR.
