Ruto has nothing against the BBI he has even said so himself in the recent past. The guy has nothing to lose whether it is passed or not!
If it is passed and he wins in 2022 he will have the opportunity to appoint a PM. An opportunity to reward one of his lieutenants
And anyway as a president he can always overturn the BBI and call for another referendum to change the katiba and remove that PM slot.
If the BBI fails he is still okay. So msidanganywe ati Ruto ni anti BBI, basically he has nothing to lose but to gain. And in fact he will use this opportunity to change the katiba and include aspects that will suite him as a future president.
So anyone fooling himself or herself that Ruto is against the BBI umejidanganya sana.
Ruto’s bone of contention with the bbi is the way it seeks to spread executive power to PM and DPMs. He wants the presidency with full executive powers period. Why? Your guess is as good as mine.
Si ungoje uone zile sarakasi zitakuwa hapo. Definitely like you have said Ruto will demand something for himself, even beyond the prime ministerial slot shenanigans.
As a politician he can’t let an opportunity like this one pass him by.
There are those who are telling him to refuse the BBI entirely and there are those who are telling him to throw in his proposals.
