The 2022 general election is not near however DP Ruto’s allies are not ready to stop campaigning for their claimed President.
This has led to a section of kalenjin leaders to pressuring Prersident Kenyatta on declaring his stand.
According to Nandi Governor Stephen Sang and MPs Oscar Sudi (Kapseret) and Caleb Kositany (Soy) now wants Mr Kenyatta to reveal whether he intends to remain in power after he completes his second term in office.
The leaders said that Ruto deserves Uhuru’s support before that time comes.
They insisted that Ruto has been very loyal to the command in chief of the armed forces.
They have also urged the President not to politicize the war against graft.
Sang warned Uhuru against entertaining his friendship with African High Representative on Infrastructure Development Raila Amolo Odinga following the handshake.
They insisted that time has come for Ruto to rise to power upon the retirement of Uhuru.
