You dont understand politics or business.
Politics is cutthroat.
People that survives like Ruto - survive not because someone is merciful - or because of friendship or bro code - but because they are smart.
If you sleep - you're dead.
Tom Mboya was assisinated..and so have many others who NAIVELY WALK AROUND WITHOUT PERSONAL SECURITY.
Raila was jailed for 9yrs - his father bankrupted by same Kenyatta he helped.
Moi kicked Njonjo...tried him for treason...yet Njonjo was critical for his ascension to power.
Moi jailed and bankrupted Matiba - who was very close to Moi.
Ruto has been taken to court by Kibaki and taken to ICC by kibaki & Raila - he is luckly to be here now.
Ruto like Uhuru - all walk around with 100 bodyguards. Raila the same.
They do this - because someone somewhere is going to kill you if not jail you or bankrupt you.
The stakes in high politics TOO HIGH - ENEMIES VICIOUS. They are almost NO FRIENDS.
So stop this nonsense about Ruto is friend to Uhuru or sijui some BRO CODE or fratenity.
Focus ON REALITY.
Why is everyone interested in Kenyatta and Moi.
Simple. TREASURY IS BROKE - Kenyatta and MOi are now richer than many broke parastals.
This is why Kenyatta are not going scot-free.
Uhuru has stashed 200B plus in 10yrs - in addition to their father. Gideon is also a trillionaire.
THIS THE ENORMOUS WEALTH THAT IS ATTRACTING ALL VULTURES NOW...it called STATE CAPTURE
Ruto will find IMF in Treasury - and debt crisis.
So where does he go hunting for MONEY - KENYATTA and MOI. He will bribe Raila with a billion Kshs so he keep silent. Nobody has issue with broke Raila.
If Uhuru and Moi resist to share their wealth or literally give it up - he will crushed by Ruto.
They are likely to resist in their ujinga - and lawyer up - and that is when Ruto will bring criminal stuff - and get them running.
Their spoils will be shared by Ruto and friends....some of it will BE NATIONALIZED..taken over by ARA as proceeds from graft and abuse of office.
Ruto will not care about 10yrs from now - he is probably looking at 20yrs - and working out something eventually
So stop being naive. Politicians will think 10yrs from now - one month to transition - and like Uhuru lose their bowel movement.
You answer yourself .
First and foremost they are friends would say more than friends. If Uhuru could join hands with Raila for personal interests even after fierce political wars from 2007 to 2017 what make you think they wont sit down and cut a deal ?
Secondly If Ruto pioneers in jailing former Presidents he will put himself in a trap of being jailed because Ruto is corrupt as all other politicians.
Thirdly Uhuru is a politician with wealth. He will just turn this personal problem to a political one . He did that with Ruto on ICC issue .
Lastly tell me which Kenyan Manifesto has ever been impilemented to the dot ?
Ruto will become President come September 2022. His priority would be to rule and retain Presidency come 2027. If he does a Mistake like Kibaki in 2003 when he went out and mismanged his transition by targeting Kalenjins then be sure there will be repurcusions.
I keep on telling you Its not that GEMA like Ruto nope ots that they hate Raila now with Raila out post Aug 2022 elections and Ruto starting small wars be sure GEMA will turn against him come 2027.
Ruto is a good learner of History unlike you he is not a Pundit. I dont think he will make the mistakes you are advocating for.
Who do you think Ruto will be probing in state capture? If not Uhuru and Gideon. Ruto you must know has meticouly gathered evidence on Uhuru grand corruption that he is keeping under wraps - from 50B SGR deal. Only thing that can stop Ruto is political backlash - so he is likely to get jail free card - but wealth will disappear.
State capture probe - and this independent institution - kedong - 1960 land redistribution - all this to me point to KENYATTA FAMILY PO BOX PRIVATE BOX GATUNDU.
Now how does Ruto handle the independent probe -so he doesnt get accused of jailing uhuru - that is the dillema.
He will try to be as independent as possible - and evidence will lead to Uhuru - he can choose to go to jail or run.
RV I dont equate myself a political player I just happen to be within their circles and I do give my honest opinion when the discussions happen . Like more than a week ago I happened to be withn Azimio/ODM think tanks by virtue of a connect the way they were talking is Uhuru and rigging is their only card . So when I see them claiming Ruto is planning to Rig elections and you cheer in hi dsight I know they are playing reverse pyschology and fighting to weaken the systems so that they can try that route.
