William Ruto is really feeling the heat, Raila Odinga is climbing the mountain and he is also working closely with Kalonzo Musyoka, Musalia Mudavadi and Gideon Moi.
Raila, Kalonzo, Mudavadi and other leaders attended the installation of Kanu Party leader Gideon Moi as its presidential candidate at Bomas of Kenya on Thursday September 30th.
During the function, Raila hit out at Ruto dismissing his hustler Vs dynasties rhetoric urging Gideon to soldier and turn a deaf ear to croaking frog.

Ruto came out to angrily lash out at Raila, Mudavadi, Kalonzo and Gideon Moi hours after the Bomas event which was aired live on television.
Speaking from his Karen home during a consultative meeting with grassroots leaders and opinion shapers from Kajiado West, a seemingly agitated Ruto rubbished the ‘come together’ meeting, saying few individuals will not determine the political destiny of millions of Kenyans who are at the bottom of the pyramid.
Ruto took shots at Raila and OKA coalition principals stating that he will engage ordinary Kenyans and will not waste his time seeking to be endorsed for the big seat.
“Few people can never again decide on behalf of Kenyans on who will be their president because they have money or influence. It is the ordinary Kenyans at the bottom that are going to determine the future of our nation,” stated Ruto.
Ruto further lamented that Kenya’s 2022 plans do not belong to leaders and power and positions, saying it should be that of ordinary people at the bottom.
“I want to ask those leaders who are driving tribal parties where a parliamentary group meeting can be conducted in the mother tongue. You are the problem because you are the ones who are promoting tribalism,”
Ruto is obviously feeling threatened by any alliance that brings Raila and OKA coalition principals together because it will be game over for him in as far as 2022 presidential election is concerned.
