Kenya News Analysis

Many analysts believe that the final showdown between President Uhuru Kenyatta and Deputy President William Ruto is at our door steps. What began with bitter attacks after the July 22, 2019 arrest of Cabinet Secretary to the National Treasury Henry Rotich, who was accused of corruption could easily end with yet another arrest, some speculate. Meanwhile the BBI judgement from the Supreme court is hovering way too close in the horizon. The judgement was being read as I posted this video. Ruto camp has never hidden its distrust for the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI), an outcome of the March 2018 peace pact between the president and Odinga – his long-time opposition foe. The initiative was symbolised by the famous public handshake between the two men – a moment now simply referred to as “The Handshake”. But the mother of all catalysts has to be the impeachment and Ruto betrayal story revealed by the President's men. Was DP Ruto capable of doing all that he has been accused of? Vi

About a month ago, Jubilee Secretary General Raphael Tuju claimed Deputy President William Ruto was unfit for leadership. And now it seems that President Uhuru Kenyatta has told Kenyans precisely why. The President recently narrated how his deputy William Ruto had planned to impeach him. Uhuru chose his address to over 3000 elders from the Mount Kenya region at State house, Nairobi to give the most detailed explanation yet of the real reasons behind his fall out with his deputy. The President said that he was tricked into taking charge of government as Ruto handled the Jubilee party where he caused mischief aimed at weakening Uhuru politically. Uhuru also claimed Ruto wanted Raila arrested and prosecuted after he was sworn as “peoples president” in January 2018. The president further disclosed that even before that, Ruto was encouraging opposition protests in 2017 while at the same time inciting Uhuru to clamp down on them. Ruto has vehemently denied the accusations. So who is te

Despite Deputy President William Samoei Ruto contradicting himself about the existence or non existence of the deep state, time has confirmed a plot contained in information gotten in April 2018. Amazingly the secret info has played out very accurately 4 years later. And still Deputy President William Ruto has continued to urge Kenyans to ignore the narrative that 'deep state' will decide on who becomes the country's next president. He assured voters that they are the ones who have the final say on who becomes the fifth president. At one point Ruto said the narrative on the existence of 'deep state and system' is a fallacy and should be dismissed. " I am the Deputy President. I want to assure you that there is nothing like 'deep state and system'. It's voters who decide on their leaders from the grassroots to the presidency," said Dr Ruto. "It's the same few rich individuals who want to maintain the same trickle-down economic model

Even before going into the latest information I have of a serious crisis brewing deep inside William Ruto's UDA and the Kenya Kwanza alliance, all the signs form a pattern that clearly suggests all is not well. It is no secret that Deputy President William Ruto is walking a tight rope ahead of the 2022 General Election, with some of his close allies dumping the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) at an hour of desperate need. Several political leaders who pioneered UDA have since quit, alleging that the DP plans to rig them out in the party primaries after bringing in new allies, who have all along been supporting the government before switching camps. Those who have defected from UDA, include Kirinyaga Woman Representative Purity Wangui Ngirici, Kisii Deputy Governor Joash Maangi, Malava MP Malulu Injendi, and his Hamisi counterpart, Charles Gemosi. Kirinyaga Woman Rep Wangui Ngirici has even described the DP as a wolf in sheep’s skin, claiming that he is a “hypocrite” and “dicta

Kenyan politicians and indeed many ordinary Kenyans use witchcraft to allegedly heal disease, get elected, get promotions etc. But does witchcraft really exist? What is it exactly and how does it impact Kenyan politics and politicians? It is said that in 2015, fear gripped the Bungoma County Assembly after it was discovered that owls live in the assembly’s ceiling board. Superstitious members skipped a couple of sessions, fearing for the worst. They claimed the ugly birds, associated with death and bad omen in most communities, had to be smoked out and rituals — in which a white bull was to be slaughtered — performed to cleanse the honourable house of bad luck. Superstitious members are believed to have scared away the bird and called in a pastor to sanctify the assembly. Then there was this senior politician who shocked staff in his office when, on being transferred to a new ministry, insisted that he must move with his office desk. Pleas by senior ministry officials that he would
