President Uhuru Kenyatta has for the umpteenth time dared his deputy president William Ruto to either toe the line or resign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The visibly angry head of state has taken a bare-knuckles approach on his deputy in what many have termed as \u2018\u2019 outright disobedience and disrespect\u2019 on part of the deputy president on his boss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The deputy president is on record going all over the country taking credit for the government’s project while on the other hand vilifying the same government over what he has termed as the \u2018\u2019 handshake\u2019s derailment of the big four\u2019s agenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Resign or toe the line\u2026.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOn the other hand, you keep saying the government is bad and on the other, the government has done this and that,\u201d said the Head of State, accusing Ruto of being two-faced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Kenyatta\u2019s wrath seemed to have been sparked by Ruto\u2019s repeated claims that the Building Bridges Initiative has replaced Jubilee\u2019s Big Four Agenda yet the DP keeps taking credit for completed government projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe are either together or we are apart. You cannot come and take credit and then at the same time insult those you are together with,\u201d said Kenyatta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Jubilee Party said that DP Ruto should be more respectful and choose which side he wants to be on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cIf we respect one another, Kenya will be peaceful. You can\u2019t keep on dividing people,\u201d said the President.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hakuna haja ya kuincite wakenya wenyewe kwa wenyewe. Unakuja unasema kwa mdomo moja serikali ni mbaya alafu kwa mdomo mwingine ati tumefanya kama serikali. Kwani serikali ni ngapi? Si ni moja? Kama unataka uzuri wake ukae nayo, kama unataja ubaya wake toka uwache wale wengine waendelee,\u201d he said. He continued: \u201cLakini huwezi kuja na mdomo moja unasema hii na mdomo mwingine unasema matusi ya wale ambao unasema unafanya na wao. Tuheshimiane jameni.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Kenyatta commissioned Uthiru Health Centre and Kiamako Health Centre, two medical facilities built by the Maj-Gen Mohamed Badi-led NMS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Today’s latest remarks by the president come on the heels of the president’s earlier remarks that he would not leave this country to a thief in what many has taken to mean that he was referring to his number two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Legislators allied to the deputy president have taken a swipe at the president\u2019s remarks in what is viewed as a defence of the deputy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" President Uhuru Kenyatta has for the umpteenth time dared his deputy president William Ruto to either toe the line or resign.
