Tension and Internal feuds have continued to brew in Ruto’s led Kenya Kwanza Alliance following new mandates entrusted to Kirinyaga gubernatorial hopeful Anne Waiguru and former Laikipia governor Joshua Irungu to lead presidential campaigns in Central Region.
Waruguru argued that she campaigned for Joshua Irungu but later betrayed and rigged her votes. She noted that if Ruto will entrust Irungu and Waiguru to spearhead Kenya Kwanza campaigns in Central region, then it might be a walk in the park for Raila to secure presidency in next election.
“I publicly campaigned for Irungu yet he was the first to betray me and rig my votes. If these are the kind of people you rely on, then Azimio will outsmart you,” she said.
Waruguru underscored Waiguru’s campaign muscles terming her as unreliable.
The Woman Rep, who was re-defected to UDA in November 2021, declared that she will not support the six-piece voting pattern, vowing to give the aspirants fierce competition.
She dismissed Ruto’s idea of calling for six piece voting in the region, citing that it will depopularize other fringe parties in the Alliance.
“I do not see the suit (six-piece voting) the thing coming to play is we will agree as Kenya Kwanza to support Ruto at the top but on the ground, we will speak our minds. Irungu, Kinyua, and Deddy, we are on your case,” she added.
