by Enock Ndayala

Deputy President William Ruto has warned President Uhuru Kenyatta against using State House as a theater of dividing Kenyans ahead of the August 9 General Election.

Addressing residents of Kwale County on Monday, March 28, the deputy president urged the head of state to instead use the office of the president as a unifying factor

“Please President; you are the leader of all Kenyans. Do not allow the State House to be the theatre of planting seeds of the division of the people of Kenya along the tribal lines…along the ethnic line,

“… my friend (President Uhuru Kenyatta), do not allow State House, the Office of the President to be the arena where falsehood, where propaganda, where ethnicity is being propagated against me as your deputy,” William Ruto said.

While responding to remarks by President Uhuru Kenyatta that the deputy president wanted to impeach him, the former Jubilee deputy party leader refuted claims that he wanted to overthrow the Jubilee government.

The UDA presidential flag bearer further warned the head of state against using the statehouse as a field of planting the seeds of hatred that will divide Kenyans along tribal lines.

“Please don’t allow State House to be used as an avenue for propaganda to spread the falsehood that we were involved in anything with Kitendawili (Raila) to impeach you or to bring down your government. Nothing of that nature, nothing and you know it President that nothing like that happened,” William Ruto said.

The former Jubilee lovebirds have been hurling insults at each other since the president shook hands with his long-time political nemesis Raila Odinga in a deal that later culminated in the August 9, succession politics.
