‘Be wary of false prophets,’ DP Ruto tells off haters

Attending events in Kiambu and Kajiado on Sunday, Deputy President William Ruto kept up his attack on Opposition leader Raila Odinga, accusing him of hypocrisy.

Dr Ruto said he would not allow the ODM leader to split Jubilee under the guise of the handshake deal with President Uhuru Kenyatta.

After attending a church service in Banana, Kiambu, the DP flew to Kajiado where he was greeted by a crowd that waved banners declaring their support for his 2022 presidential bid.

Alluding to a Bible verse in a thinly veiled reference to Raila, Ruto asked Jubilee Party members to be wary of leaders who looked harmless but had ill intentions.

“Be wary of false prophets. They are just clothed with sheepskin but are wolves,” he said later at a fundraiser in ACK St Peter Emakoko in Kajiado County. Ruto said it was taking time to unite the country, as “some people have a history of sowing division”.

“Kuna watu wengi ingawa tunajaribu kuwafundisha mambo ni kuweka waKenya pamoja, mambo ni maendeleo kwa sababu walizoea kugawana, fujo, ukabila… inachukua muda lakini watazoea ndio tuendelee kufanya mambo ya maendeleo na kuweka wakenya pamoja,” he said in Kiswahili.

Political leaders present vowed unwavering support for Ruto and the Jubilee Party.
