Kapseret Member of Parliament Oscar Sudi has finally challenged President Uhuru Kenyatta to declare his stand regarding Deputy President William Ruto’s quest to succeed him.
Sudi says there is nothing more Kalenjins can hide. This happens a day after the Mt Kenya business mogul and deposed politician (with an outstanding work record nonetheless) suddenly started walking with William Ruto.
This is not the first instance where Sudi is challenging President Kenyatta’s manliness. In many occasions, whenever given a chance to speak to a gathering, especially when he is in funerals in his backyard, Sudi is never afraid to challenge the president. He has done several times.
There is a serious division among Mt. Kenya politicians. The division arises because of the divergent views about what a new Mt Kenya political dynasty should look like, and, most importantly, how it should be created.
The Kenyattas are done and must be replaced. They can no longer lead Mt Kenya, unless they move back to the deep state. One school of thought in Mount Kenya believes that betraying Ruto is the way to go.
This is the team that Moses Kuria leads. This faction is reckless and hasty. They already formed a new politically in the name of “sending a message” to William Ruto.
The other school of thought comprises mature politicians who understand the value of restraint. This is the faction of Kabogo. It holds that supporting Ruto is strategic- they will buy enough time to groom another Mt Kenyan president.
