Politics is a strange game. Anything is possible. I certainly do not see this theory as being any more crazy than all the pro-Ruto "analysis."
Herman may have a point.
Raila vs Ruto: What will determine who wins
-
Why do people listen to this Atwoli. 5yrs every week; the same theme; Ruto is going down; every week.
https://www.youtube.com/c/HermanManyora/videos
Very embrassing;
Like Mutahi Ngunyi
-
Raila, who's Ruto main competitor peaked in 1982, while ruto was in pre school
-
It will be very interesting to see how things go when the election is over.

I really like this two-year-old interview of Martha Karua. I just like the way she comes across. It's easy to forget that she was only 35 when she won her first parliamentary race.

I found the contrast played in this video, between Ruto and Raila, to be brilliant. We need more of this!
Shocking! Raila's message to Ruto from Nakuru
-
It would be very interesting to see Raila and Ruto answer the same questions that Mukhisa Kituyi got on this program, especially on the economy:
| NEWSNIGHT | Which Way Mukhisa? [Part 1]

The section on James Orengo in the video below is a must-see. It starts at minute 3:07 and goes to 8:13.
James Orengo Destroys William Ruto Completely Infront Of Raila Odinga Over Harun Aydin in Homabay
-
Ruto long peaked in Jubilee 2017. Gema 99% already down to 50% despite ready Uhuru punchbag. All Matusa, pastoralists, Luhya, Gusii and such swing zones - 2017 was his best with billions and machinery. Now he has a new animal called UDA - whose economic message has resonated with Kikuyu youth. Hustler or bottom-up was dry-run elsewhere and likes of Kamba, Luhya, Gusii could hear none of it. Kamba for example could not get how hustler cabinet was pure Kalenjin - so they wondered when did Kamba become so important to the Kalenjin tribalist.
Ruto (the man not UDA) has only marginally improved in Coast - vs 2017 - due to the divisions, indecisions there among Mvuryas, Kingis - and offloading Kenyatta baggage.
Otherwise NARC 2 is loading slow but sure... they are just working on Mdvd. Every armchair analyst knows Ruto stands no chance unless Handshake disintegrates. They don't even need BBI to hang him.

Karua has never had time for Ruto (and Uhuru) - she is the straightjacket integrity type that joined #LindaKatiba but sees Ruto for the corrupt thug he really is. Most purist NGO types actually don't support Ruto but oppose BBI. They are not foolee by bottom-up mumbo jumbo. When push comes to shove they will back Raila.
-
You're wrong - Ruto has managed to retain Jubilee almost intact (except few confused elements in Mt Kenya) - and has raided NASA - has won likes of Muthama, Khawales, Nanok, Jumwa, and many others. Ruto has made significant inroads in Coast - and we shall see how Kingi-Mvurya play this.
The handshake crew died without BBI - their funeral is friday.
What will they go home and tell people
You spend 5yrs - yet another 5yrs - since 2013 - sharing non-existent post :) :) - MAAAAAAAJABU.

Martha is corrupt like any other politician. Find out who sold Umoja house to Kenya Police. Martha Karua if she is running after Kiunjuri-Kuria tells you she wants or is talking to Ruto. Her biggest weakness - she is not nimble.
Anyway Kirinyanga governor hauoni - but Ruto can make her a senator. That is the only thing she can be helped with. Otherwise Kirinyanga she will appeal till ICC again and again.
Like PK - she made a tragic blunder to run for PORK in 2013. Ruto edged her - she was talking to Ruto - and Ruto encouraged using his own NIS both Martha and PK to run - in fact at some point she was convinced Ruto would back her instead of Uhuru. Ruto was busy negotiating with her - and then final minute - when she could not pull out - Ruto pulled out.
Because PK was taking Muranga governorship - and would now be a real threat - now after completing two terms as performing governor. But he betrayed GEMA - run for PORK - scored 0.2% like Mukaru wa Nganga :). When he was about to recovered - he was encouraged to run in Nairobi - when everyone knew SONKO was bad news :) - he claimed he was rigged out. Sasa he cuts an image of a loser. People long forgot the magic of CDF in Gatanga..they remember a loser who has lost twice.
The same with Martha. Then in 2017 - Ruto did away with Kabogos, Mbuguas and Munyas.
AS we speak there is no GEMA real threat. Ruto made it HAPPEN. Only Waria escaped - but he is a milk man - huyo ni fukara.
The same way MaDVD was made to run -- by UhuRuto.
You people do not understand just how brilliant a strategist Ruto is.
Dont be surprised hawa NASA are being played 10-NIL :)

Basically, the message we get from our resident Ruto "moderator" is that everyone steals so it's okay. Everyone is corrupt so it's okay. Ruto is a thief but he's okay. In fact, he's like Tom Mboya (the worst insult you can give Mboya. God rest his soul). Given all this, or because of it, Ruto should actually be Kenya's next president. It's okay.
The only problem is that some of us were NEVER with Uhuruto, and we will stick to our belief that Kenya deserves a better president than one who claims that his only sin is to have stolen faster than his competitors.
If Martha is corrupt Ruto should definitely be in jail for international crimes (but we won't go there for now. We'll continue pretending that he had nothing to do with it).
Yes, a country can get raped only so many times before she's pronounced dead due to internal injuries.

I am not interested to convince you moron over anything. I analyze politics as it is. When it come to my candidates; they are my choices; you pick yours. I voted Uhuru, Ruto, Sonko, lost Mp seat, Women rep and Sakaja won - I knew all of them are thieves and murderers - but I picked the, better evil.
Maybe Nowayaha can interest you in voting for Ruto - I am here to analyse politics - and I will be the first to admit Ruto is very corrupt. Raila is also very corrupt.
And there are many non-corrupt candidates like Turkana Boy - Ekoru Okoth - go for him - because you're a single issue moron.
In politics we look at the MEAN GRADE - you could be as clean as whistle - but you have no political leadership skills - you cannot lead goats.
Or someone like you - with IQ below room temperature - even if you are NOT corrupt - who will elect you to become anything

Why are you angry? Why do you always lose your temper when you're called out? :D
You are very transparent.
Some of us are just not good at pretending that we agree with something when we don't. Sorry to disappoint you and your "dispassionate analysis" (they are only dispassionate as long as you agree like a fool. The moment you disagree the "analysis" becomes very passionate and insults get thrown, left and right. You're a joke).

NARC 2 is loading... they are now working on Mdvd after Kalonzo accepted VP. Read that OKA Naivasha retreat story. You need to acknowledge the desperation of Mdvds - they need something to sell to Luhya and remain kingpin. BBI does the trick - that's why most remain pro-Raila and won't be seen with Ruto. Of course you can claim they are secretly talking to Ruto - conjecture - but we have to go by the news until new surprises emerge.
Jubilee had more punch in Luhya, Gusii, Maa, etc before trojan. I mean they could easily go head to head in Gusii with ODM ... now if you assume as things are today - ODM-Jubilee coalition is 70-30 Ruto loss.
Look at Bungoma - before handshake - Jubilee bagged 4 out of 8 MPs 8) - thanks to NASA divisions. Lusaka lost by a whisker. But now Uhuru is working painstakingly on NASA unity - meeting these guys at SH weekly. Uhuru was behind by-election unity to beat Ruto in Western n Kamba.
I mean Kamba really - Dr Victor Munyaka won Machakos town - together with 3 or 4 other Jubilee MPs in Kitui and Makueni. Today UDA cannot manage even MCA seat in Kamba thanks to the breakup and NASA tribal game.
Losing Uhuru and machinery was such a BIG LOSS to Ruto that you deny for obvious reasons. I doubt these NASA fools would stick together without Uhuru. But now they just need to promise BBI hybrid in 100 days - and Mdvd-Matiang'is run for D/PM. While Ruto struggles to sell new ponzi scheme. Luhya and Gusii will not listen.
You're wrong - Ruto has managed to retain Jubilee almost intact (except few confused elements in Mt Kenya) - and has raided NASA - has won likes of Muthama, Khawales, Nanok, Jumwa, and many others. Ruto has made significant inroads in Coast - and we shall see how Kingi-Mvurya play this.

You're redundant. Someone is putting on a show. And you're the monkey on display. Real negotiation happen behind the scenes. Ruto, Uhuru and Kalonzo did it in a gazebo :) with Uhuru smoking heavily. Kalonzo refused and Muthama delivered him to Raila. Kalonzo had previously made silent deal with Kibaki
Secondly, where is Mt kenya in negotiating table. Why break up NASA - to go right back :) :)
3rdly after DPORK - without BBI - what will you Kaloi or maDVD take to his people. Kaloi - yet another DPORK - that Uhuru has now completely destroyed.
Again, be afraid, of Uhuru's deliberate show, when everyone in mt Kenya is running away.
Today the last bunch of Kieleweke was calling for Tuju-Murathe exit - code word - for ODM-Jubilee merger wont cut.
Dont be so NAIVE.
Like BBI - I tried to help you - but ONA SASA.
Day one I told you BBI is designed to fail. Reason - Uhuru did not go through parliament - he just gazetted some random old men. This should have been act of parliament - with defined terms - with report presented to parliament.
Day two - BBI time-wasting until last minute - when it practically time barred.
Day three - Uhuru did not ask for anything in BBI :)
Day four - Uhuru is not asking for anything in NASA coalition :)
GNU iko wapi - gov of national unity?
When are Ruto people in gov getting fired.
Charles Keter is Ruto's bosom buddy - why is he still in gov. Why are mt kenya mps and likes running to Ruto :)
Week one - you break up NASA - week two - you all run to Mombasa to be re-united :: ) :)

Procurement contracts are now “commonly referred to in Kenya as ‘budgeted corruption,’” according to John Githongo, an anti-corruption activist and whistleblower, who added that there have been no consequences for the political elite involved in the plunder.
“Unfortunately it has been a defining characteristic of the Jubilee (Party) regime, and very sadly the health sector has been predated upon more than others,” he said.
The Jubilee Party did not respond to a request for comment on this story in time for publication.
...Linturi, the controversial senator, is linked to at least 14 companies, whose services range from insurance to pharmaceuticals to furniture supply. One of his companies, Atticon Limited, which started as a construction firm, was awarded a $1.1 million contract by the Office of the Deputy President in 2016 to supply honorary medals.
Former employees told reporters that the senator’s company received the inflated contract and then procured the medals from Dubai. They also said the senator employed fraudulent tactics to win the tender, using multiple companies he owned to bid against each other, creating an illusion of competition.
Linturi, who did not respond to questions from reporters, was briefly detained, reportedly on fraud charges, three weeks after the Africa Uncensored investigation was published.

He [Gicheru] was accused of allegedly contacting witnesses, offering or paying the, financial benefits or intimidated them to withdraw as prosecution witnesses.
According to the court, they allegedly had an ultimate goal of undermining the prosecutions case against Ruto and Sang.
The evidence against Gicheru claims that the accused was answerable to Ruto and his other aides who offered money and threats to critical witnesses. The DP has not responded to the fresh claims.

Kumbe Kalonzo knows Ruto's corruption? Then again, I suppose everyone does but in Kenya anyone can qualify for State House so long as he/she can stand up and speak to a mic.
In what appeared to be a veiled attack on Ruto, Kalonzo said, "We cannot have a man who dips his hand into the cookie jar at every single opportunity and at the same time present himself as a messiah."

This was actually fun to watch today. But will Kalonzo promise that if he gets elected and someone commits crimes against humanity, he will work closely with the International Criminal Court to bring him to justice, including capturing and sending him to the Hague?
We should not allow this character close to power, Kalonzo badly deconstructs Ruto

There are much more important issues for Kenya than the Uhuruto BBI infighting.
Much immediate analysis has focused on the risk that BBI’s failure plays into the hands of Deputy President William Ruto. Once an essential ally of Kenyatta, the controversial and ambitious Ruto has become the president’s central political antagonist. While Kenyatta is in the final year of his presidency, shaping the contours of the country’s political future is one of his central priorities. BBI appeared tailor-made to bolster a broad political alliance that could attract enough support to box Ruto out of power.
But in addition to affecting the prospects of Kenya’s most prominent political figures, the Kenyan judiciary’s rejection of BBI could herald important changes to the unwritten rules of Kenyan politics. Rather than bending the institutions of the state to their will, political leaders are finding that they must work within the bounds of the 2010 constitution. At the same time, young Kenyans have grown skeptical of old political narratives and savvy about the costs of state largesse aimed at mobilizing voters.

Makau raises some very important points regarding Ruto.
We must ask these questions. Who controls the bigger chunk of the state? Does Mr Ruto, or Mr Kenyatta? Even more importantly, who controls the more lethal chunk of the state? The state is a creature of violence with which it’s maintained. That’s why the person who wields its lethality is the most important matter. A stable state can’t be a multithreaded hydra. There simply can’t be two centres of power. One must give.
...We overcorrected in the 2010 Constitution by making it virtually impossible for the President, or MPs, to remove the DP. We got the institutional design wrong. The DP is the “principal assistant” to the President, but she, or he, can decide to stink up the Executive and get away with it. It’s exactly what Mr Ruto has done.

Raila And Mt Kenya: Why Something Is Bound To Go Wrong
-
The former Prime Minister who was the Chief Guest at the KANU National Delegates Conference during the unveiling of Gideon Moi's presidential bid on Thursday at Bomas of Kenya downplayed the dynasty narrative saying everybody regardless of their background have the right to pursue their political ambitions.
Odinga also hinted that he will be on the ballot alongside other presidential hopefuls including Musalia Mudavadi and Kalonzo Musyoka who are members of the One Kenya Alliance.
"You have started the journey and but rest assured you will meet with others at the ballot and all this is because of the democracy that we enjoy. So be ready," he said.

Will Ruto’s gambit work? The answer is probably not – at least when it comes to resisting coalition politics. The Deputy President is already running into trouble with his attempts to establish a party structure. If producing a line-up of officials that doesn’t fracture the campaign is proving tricky, the task of nominating candidates in a few months will be a massive test. And when Ruto chooses his running mate he will come under intense pressure to pick a well-known figure that can be relied upon to deliver a good number of votes. There are also likely to be challenges at other levels of political mobilization. To start with, some of the people he is trying to recast as party members are not necessarily content or comfortable in that role – partly because it diminishes their independence, but also because it pushes them into a different style of politics that foregrounds the party, not the personal role of the politician as an individual. That may not work.

A comment from a viewer of the video:
These are the kind of things that disgust me. I strongly despise these kind of politics. This man thinks that by giving out light notes to poor Kenyans, he can buy their votes.
And using a wheelbarrow as a symbol of party ideology is really backward and undermining, especially in the 21st century.

Mediocre analysis. Politics is a cutthroat game. Ruto will probably get 0-50 Luo votes, mainly those married into the samoei family and extended relatives. The remaining millions will vote for jaCon to a man. No vote lost or gained!

Question is, how significant a number is Ruto’s own mini deep state?
One can’t tell for sure, but it would be naïve not to know the man who was practically a co-president during the first term most certainly used that power to build his own network, even as he was amassing the wealth he has.
We have seen evidence of that in information leaked by Ruto’s junior bloggers. His senior bloggers, including highly educated doctors and lawyers, are in the meantime busy making fools of themselves saying things that make no sense to anyone, including themselves—but that is for another day.
For now, the question is, has Ruto peaked before the 2022 election?
The short answer is yes.
