Malala will do the dirty work - Ruto will come and clean up. Ruto doesnt want to leave this to last minute like Kibaki and have to rig. Or like Uhuru lost Azimio.
Like in 2017 - Jubilee was done deal by 2016 - a year to election.
Ruto now as MORE leverage - he will have less leverage as we approch 2027.
Now if he threatens to remove Weta - or Kingi - or maDVD - from power sanctums- they will think twice - because it will be 4.5yrs in the cold.
Mapema ndio best. Most of these parties did not meet their MOU bargain - therefore have little in leverage.
Once I saw Malala as SG i knew there was a merger in the making. Veronica who has been the most successful SG in Kenyan history was put aside for Malala to do the dirty work .
As I said previously Kiraitu and Wekesa were unable to do so with JAP Uhuru and Ruto had to do it themselves . It will take Ruto and Mudavadi and Wetangula doing it by themselves as we approach 2027 elections .
