Don't steal. The Uhuruto Government hates competition.

Good for him. He should look for a job outside Kenya instead of trying to extend his rule through proxies. The world need people who can go to war zones and deliver stern warnings to stupid leaders like Abiy or even Museveni

But, of course, you do not mind him being replaced with someone who is the same or much worse.

You are amazing.

Uhuru has done his two terms; he should be grateful; should help in organizing free and fair elections; not have ministers and ps who are forbidden by constitution from being political; trying to unfluence politics; and possibly cause tribal if not a civil war next year.

Once Uhuru retires, we will pay him pension and he can look for gigs or retire to smoking weed.

As for Ruto - many kenya do not agree with you - and as democrat you need to accept  that majority however stupid will have their way - you can have you say

Stubborn facts
1) Ruto is very popular
2) UDA is very popular.
3) Uhuru has employed unorthodox means that could lead to tribal and civil war.
4) Ruto is very capable of playing rough at the time of choosing.

We want free and fair election - then whoever loses accept defeat or go to competent court that inspire confidence. HIYO TU.


But, of course, you do not mind him being replaced with someone who is much worse!

I'm not going to get into a contest to split Uhuruto hairs. That would be far below my dignity. I would rather play with my drone.
