MURATHE is a loose cannon and he should shut his foul mouth – UHURU says and distances himself from his RUTO’s retirement remark

DAILY POST: MURATHE is a loose cannon and he should shut his foul mouth – UHURU says and distances himself from his RUTO’s retirement remark News, Politics 01:49 Saturday December 29, 2018-President Uhuru Kenyatta has distanced himself from remarks made by Jubilee Party Vice chairman, David Murathe, who asked Deputy President William Ruto to retire with the president in 2022.
Murathe, who was speaking during Maragoli Cultural Festival in Mbale, Vihiga County on Wednesday, said Ruto, should retire alongside Uhuru come 2022 because they have both served their terms. “We do not have any MoU with anybody that it is a must we shall support them in 2022. If they had such a deal with Uhuru then it is upon them. This government you are serving with Uhuru and it is a 50/50 deal why should you demand for another share in 2022,” Murathe asked. But in an exclusive interview on Friday in State House, Mombasa, Uhuru dismissed Murathe’s sentiments and said Jubilee party has its own plan ahead of the next election. He also said leaders like Murathe should stop discussing about 2022 succession politics because Kenyans wants development. The father of the nation said he cannot understand why people are rushing and linking everything to 2022 when there is a lot of work to be done. “Wale ambao wanaonge hio wanaongea yao. Mimi najua tuko na chama yetu tutakua na mipango yetu huko mbele vile wale wenginewatakua na mipango yao (Those who are talking are expressing their views. I know we have our party and a future plan just like our competitors)," Uhuru said.
