Friday January 25, 2019 - Central Organisation of Trade Unions (COTU) Secretary General, Francis Atwoli, has slammed Deputy President William Ruto's Western Kenya political allies for confusing him for the Head of State.

Speaking yesterday, Atwoli hit out at a section of Luhya leaders fond of attending meetings at Ruto's Sugoi home and other residences saying they were misled to seek governance guidance from the DP's home instead of seeking President Uhuru Kenyatta's counsel at State House. He referred to the Luhya MPs trooping to Ruto’s home for handouts as "washenzi" (idiots), saying their behaviour amounted to undermining Uhuru's powers. "It is impossible for the Deputy President to dish out development projects.” “The sword of power is always in the hand of one person and no matter how weak that person is, one day they will rise to the occasion and everything will change," he said. Atwoli thanked Uhuru for appointing Interior Cabinet Secretary, Fred Matiangi, to spearhead implementation of all Government development projects saying the move will now stop Luhya leaders from going to beg Ruto at his home. "The President has now risen to the occasion. “ He has begun showing he is President who is supposed to protect his citizens.” “If the President would continue looking weak and delegating his powers to his deputy then the voters' loyalty would shift to him," said the COTU leader.
