Controversial Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria who rubbished claims that Mt Kenya region will not back a Deputy President William Ruto presidency come 2022, seems to have “dumped” the same Ruto and brought Raila on board.
In a press briefing at Parliament Building, the Gatundu South MP on Thursday said that his life is in danger and has reported to the DCI.
The MP at the same time denied reports that he had resigned as Gatundu South MP.
“Following my speech at Thika Stadium on New Year’s Eve, there has been heated debate in the country and rising political temperatures, which are coming at a very early phase of the New Year. 
On January 4, I addressed a press conference in Gatundu South and clarified that my speech was directed at the Kiambu leadership and not President Uhuru,” the MP said.
“I have nothing but the utmost respect for President Uhuru with whom I have worked with for a long time towards making Kenya a great nation. In that press conference, I offered my unqualified apology to the President for any hurt and misconception that my words could have created. I hereby reiterate that apology to the President and my fellow Kenyans,” Kuria added.
He said that despite his apology, he is being subjected to personalised attacks from “people with personal and political scores to settle with me”.
During the presser Mr Kuria announced his support for the Building Bridges Initiative and apologized to President Kenyatta over his skewed development comments.
He said that he has written to ODM leader Raila Odinga to launch projects in his constituency in the spirit of the ‘handshake’.
The move comes amid heated debate over the 2022 succession politics fueled by Mt Kenya legislatures.
Ruto who has had along working relationship with Moses Kuria is said to have condemned the way the MPs expressed their concerns to the president saying that Jubilee members must use appropriate mechanism to channel matters concerning the ruling government and avoid unnecessary negative debate that only undermine the party , the party leadership and the President.
Deputy President William Ruto has however said he will work with all leaders irrespective of their political affiliations.He noted that development will be elusive if leaders are not united.
“As MCAs (members of county assemblies), you are leaders at the grassroots who are well placed to help the Government implement its development projects, especially the Big Four agenda. We will work together for the sake of now and the future,” he said.
He was responding to MCAs who vowed to oppose any move to interfere with devolution in case of a referendum.
