Moses Kuria’s Thanksgiving and Prayer day on Saturday at Thika Stadium was full of unprecedented political fireworks. Without mentioning names speaker after speaker appeared to direct their attacks at a senior government official who has lately fallen out with President Uhuru Kenyatta.
Moses Kuria addressed the crowd at Thika Stadium on Saturday.
The most damning condemnation was made by billionaire Stanley Livondo who said that the top-ranking official in government, who was also Uhuru’s key ally, tried crashing his aircraft in two separate instances.
Livondo said Uhuru broke ranks irretrievably with the unnamed politician following the attempts on his life.
Dr. William Samoei Ruto.
The turn of events at Thika Stadium has brought to memory President Uhuru Kenyatta’s pronouncements in January this year. The President had said that he will soon embark on a tour of the Mount Kenya region in which he will reveal what led to the fallout between him and his deputy Dr. William Ruto.
“I’m not a madman,” the President had said, “that I should revoke an agreement between myself and Ruto without good reason. I will soon tell Kenyans what led to the fallout and why I changed my mind about the succession arrangement “.
The anticipated occasion has been billed as Sagana 3 where the President is expected to make incriminating revelations about his deputy.
Stanley Livondo claimed to touch only the tip of the iceberg in Thika Stadium.
Stanley Livondo is a reputable Kenyan businessman with interests in confectionary, hospitality, and real estate. He unsuccessfully vied for Kibra parliamentary and Kakamega senatorial races. That he should be in the custody of such incriminating evidence is a little unsettling.
United Democratic (UDP) Party leader Cyrus Jirongo who knew Dr. Ruto in his early days as a member of Youth for KANU 92 also possesses more incriminating evidence against the DP. If this evidence is disseminated haphazardly in public rallies the DP with his allies could find an easy way out and counter with their brand of a smear campaign.
Perhaps it’s time as Kenya’s sleuthing queen Jane Mugoh suggested that certain gentlemen should record statements with the DCI and formal investigations launched.
Kenyans are highly anticipating President Uhuru’s onslaught on his daring deputy.
Meanwhile, President Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta and his handshake partner Raila Amollo Odinga are said to be preparing a final earthshaking onslaught on deputy President Dr. William Ruto starting from Sagana State Lodge next week. In the same week, the president is expected to lead Jubilee Party National Delegates Conference which will endorse Raila Amollo Odinga for President.
