Museveni and Ruto struck a deal before the elections. Museveni helped Ruto to finance his campaign. To what end? I don’t know.
But I know Museveni has great ambitions for the East Africa community. -
A lot of birrionares that Kenyatta family had sabotaged were very happy. From Mary Wambui, Humphrey Kariuki to Rostam Aziz. Even Aliko Dangote showing up was significant. Uhuru had kicked out so many billionaires that could threaten his family wealth expansion to the curb.

There will be no bottoms up economy. It will be a trickle down economy. Those rich people that were kicked to the curb by Uhuru will expand exponentially but peasants being peasants are happy with breadcrumbs – low paying jobs, unga at 90 bob, and hustlers fund.

Ruto made a deal with CJ Martha Koome. It says a lot that immediately after he was sworn in, he increased Judiciary’s budget by 3 billion every year for the next 5 years and appointed the judges – this is what CJ Martha Koome had demanded from Uhuru but her wishes were denied.
No wonder the Supreme Court judges didn’t want to shoot themselves in the foot by nullifying the elections.
- Ruto will first keep his promises to his key allies before he keeps his promises to the common mwananchi. He has to make a lot of people happy, which is not an easy feat.
However, don’t underestimate Ruto – I won’t be surprised if he delivers.
Since I wish well for my country, I hope he succeeds so that this country can prosper.
After witnessing Azimio’s disorganization, kiburi, chest thumping, handpicking incompetent people because they’re sycophants, I don’t have confidence in Raila’s leadership skills anymore.
