Ruto's dilemma as Mt Kenya affiliate parties dig in

Quote
DP Ruto says he doesn't need a coalition, but Mt Kenya affiliates and analysts say he does if he wants to win State House

Kiunjuri dismissed UDA as a regional party..  he almost called it Kalenjin.

Quote
In what appeared to be a warning to Ruto, Kiunjuri on Monday said no party would win the 2022 election without relying on regional parties.

In fact, Kiunjuri claimed that no party can boast of being a national outfit.

Kuria said UDA is a foreign party

Quote
Kuria has been positioning himself as a possible running mate for the DP. He has said given the millions of voters in the region, Mt Kenya cannot afford to support 'foreign

The problem he is a loner - if he was speaking flanked by 10 other Mps and 30 mcAS - RUto would negotiate. But for now - Ruto will ignore them.

They are going to irrelavance like Martha and Peter Kenneth - or Gideon Moi - with one MP :)

Politics 101 - before rushing to a MIC - convince your peers - get at least 10mps - to support and accompany you for at least 3 months.

Then speak on behalf of a community

Pundit your propaganda now is that Ruto has direct support - while it is clear as day to the rest of us Ruto wouldn't survive a Kuria or Kiunjuri onslaught. Definitely Jubilee remnants will not be keen to board a feuding camp.

The thing with politics it is easier to say lets quit evil Jubilee or ODM - but much tougher to craft a happy home for everyone. These guys are supposed to be Ruto key cogs in Kikuyuland - instead they are attacking UDA and calling for Limuru 3 to set minimum terms of engagement with "foreigners."

These UDA problems are the GENIUS of Raila handshake decapitating Jubilee. Now it back to basics - Ruto cutting deals with pawns apende asipende.

I see they roped in Karua. These thugs are in it for themselves not any vision or hustlers. You don't want to mess with them while facing NARC 2.

Quote
Tellingly, the duo which was joined by Narc Kenya leader Martha Karua, a key political figure from the region, unveiled a forum they said will push for the interests of  Mt Kenya.

A major regional conference dubbed Limuru 3 will be convened in the next 90 days, where they will set the region's irreducible minimums for negotiations with any presidential candidate, including Ruto
