Azimio Allied MPs Wants DP Ruto to Resign

[ad_1]

Legislators allied to the Azimio la Umoja movement have demanded for the resignation of Deputy President William Ruto and legislators linked to the UDA party and former members of the Jubilee party.

This comes days after Ruto was endorsed as UDA presidential flag bearer and launched a scornful attack on President Uhuru Kenyatta’s administration.

Led by Jubilee Party Secretary-General Jeremiah Kioni, the MPs on Wednesday, 16th March accused DP Ruto of being hypocritical for wearing two hats; Deputy President and now UDA presidential candidate.

The MPs spoke at Parliament Buildings castigating Ruto over his continued stay in the government he unceasingly criticises and likened him to a servant serving two masters.

Kioni said DP Ruto had breached the constitutional convention doctrine of collective responsibility.

He said that when a Cabinet member disagrees with the government publicly, the constitutional convention requires him to resign and advocate his tentative position from outside of government.

“As members of Jubilee Party, we want to tell the DP that he is out of order. This is where we draw the line. Enough is enough. And we say so because the DP is an active member of what he called a mongrel government,” said Kioni.

“We demand that Dr William Ruto resigns from his position as Deputy President. This is the honorable thing to do if he is to avoid pathological lies,” he added.
