Mandago  should beef up his security especially now that Burukenge Buzeki is running as independent, desperate people do desperate
stuff and burukenge Buzeki will stop at nothing.

I do not understand Baba Abby. Why does he undermine people like Mandago? That should be his ally no. 1 in RV. Mandago is a tribal bigot and can hold the base for Ruto. One does not make such guys his enemies.

Ruto has never interfered with local elections. That is why his support  in Kalenjin in steadfast. Mandago is blaming Ruto allies or people in his office but in reality this local competition - Buzeki has non-kalenjin vote in Uasin Gishu (which is quite significant - could be 30-40%) and Mandago is trying to basically intimidate them to vote for him.
