On Sunday 30,2018 Deputy President William Ruto accused NASA leader Raila Odinga of using the spirit of handshake to bring conmanship and propaganda in the government.
Ruto warned Odinga that the handshake witnessed between him and President Uhuru Kenyatta on March 9, 2018 was not a licence to conmanship in the government.
He noted that Odinga has been fighting him since the KANU era, citing that it will not be possible for Odinga to kick him out of Jubilee the same way he did to him while in ODM Party.
He further cites that the aim of the handshake was to bring unity and spearhead for development and not coning Kenyans money.
DP @WilliamsRuto, “You cannot kick me out of @TheODMparty and then try to kick me out of Jubilee using conmanship,propaganda or handshake. Hio ni ndoto ya mchana.” https://t.co/vXXP4Dv3tM

However, Ruto’s sentiments against Odinga have welcomed hilarious reactions from Kenyans on twitter who strongly accuse Ruto for making such a statement.
They now claim that William Ruto is always worried of Odinga whenever he stands to speak on any political forum.
Some say Ruto wants to keep on accusing Odinga to make him vie come 2022 so that he can rig him easily.
They have now called on Ruto to stop accusing Odinga each and every time and focus on development agenda.
They say Ruto has focused much on politics rather than development, and now want him to forget about 2017 politics which Odinga participated, and focus on development.
Here are some of the reactions against Ruto from Kenyans on Twitter.
William Ruto is a worried man. Unfortunately, @RailaOdinga has nothing to do with you. Those walking with you are your greatest enemy. They are chewing your cash for now. Wait for 2022. The reality will hit you hard.

By mentioning Raila and conmanship in the same sentence, William Ruto is trying to tell his Kalenjin electorate to whom he lied to in 2013 that it’s Raila who made ‘them’ not to pay the debt. Remember he told them to religiously support Uhuru because of the promise …

If you love this country including those who already sold it to the Chinese via Jubilee, In 2022 don’t think about voting for His Corruptioness DP Ruto. You should keep your IDs safe & by all means Prevent William Ruto from taking over this country else it will be an apocalypse.

If you thought your partner was cheating, who would you confront? Your partner or the person you believed they were cheating on you with?
It’s time for William Ruto as Deputy President and Deputy Party Leader in Jubilee to confront Uhuru Kenyatta publicly not just Raila Odinga. pic.twitter.com/miLJdC9UgR
