Ruto finished Gema political elite in 2017
. The rest are details. He dehorned all the big boys - and left the small boys only. Now he is finishing Muthamaki and the remnant of Kenyatta era elite by instigating hustler revolution against entrenched privilege class there.
In 2022 - GEMA leadership will be impossible to tell - it will be young, humble background hustlers, nationalist - and the old tribalistic elite of Jomo Kenyatta Snr - will be gone. This will be a repeat of Kalenjin purge post Moi.
After 2007 revolution against Moi was completed - we now have 20yr old straight from thatch grass houses being senators/governors/mps. Kalenjin now examine the character of the person - and leadership quality. We have many young leaders, women leaders and name them. Anybody can wake up and dream of being anything in the political space...without having well known surname or tonnes of money.
The same will happen in GEMA. GEMA are being liberated from Kenyatta homeguard elite - that continues to dominate GEMA economy and politics. We will have more Ndindi Nyoros, Irungu Kangata and many hustlers right from poverty trust to leadership based on their leadership skillls.
Look at Uhuru - his surrounds himself not will elected leaders of GEMA - but with old elite boys! All the big deals go to same old elite st mary boys! The rest of GEMA leaders are kept outside - far away - from queen English speaking elite boys and girls.
As for Non-GEMA alliance - I think Ruto is just completing that project - and is good insurance against Muthamaki playing dirty.
The next project - will be to save the LUO NATION from ODINGAISM.
Ruto should watch out for Uthamaki plants pretending to support him. He must consolidate the original KANU/ Moi anti Uthamaki alliance. All he needs to do is divide GEMA. He doesn't need their votes. He just needs to render them useless like Moi did or should I say we did in 1992 and with less success in 1997.
Sadly Moi sabotaged this alliance in 2002.
Btw for any Uthamaki's I was the last soldier of KANU. I make no apologies. The thieves left KANU clean. The top leadership was a bit stinky but the other parties were worse.
Imagine Kenneth Matiba fighting for democracy!
Mwai Kibaki a "freedom fighter"
Kijana Wamalwa juggling between Kibaki hard to come handouts and easy to get hangouts from Moi.
I preferred to stay put.
