Makueni — Deputy President William Ruto has asked Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka to join forces with UDA.

He said UDA was the party of the people with a big following, a national outlook and a clear economic agenda for the country.

The Deputy President said Kalonzo should not make a mistake of joining ODM leader Raila Odinga for the third time.

Dr Ruto said Musyoka had on numerous occasions been coerced to support Odinga, yet the former Prime Minister was not ready to reciprocate.

Speaking in Makueni County, on Thursday, Dr Ruto said : “Musyoka has been supporting Raila. It’s time he reconsiders his political stand.”

Ruto, said Kenyans were rallying behind the hustler movement and its plans to revive the economy.

Ruto said Kenyans had the ultimate role to elect their leaders.

“Those purporting to choose the country’s leadership in hotels and private meetings are doomed to fail,” noted Ruto

The Deputy President urged the Ukambani region to support his presidential bid.

He said UDA has an elaborate plan to open up the economy to benefit ordinary Kenyans.

“Over 80 percent Kenyan small business being majority are set to benefit,” he said.

He said UDA is the only party with a national outlook and in a position to unite the country.

“Competitors are only interested in creating positions for themselves while I am focused on improving the lives of majority of ordinary citizens,” said Ruto.
