Politics...politics...politics.....the
most unpredictable and interesting game of all.You wouldn't want to
miss out on the latest gist in the opposition party.The opposition
leader just did the unexpected by asking the deputy president, who is
also the Jubilee coalition flag bearer, to back him up in his bid to
secure the presidential seat come 2017 elections.Yes you got that
right....
This
comes as a shock for most political fans since as it is well known by
most the support of deputy president William Ruto undoubtedly goes to
the president Uhuru Kenyatta.However,it remains to be Raila's stand as
he maintains that he would like to have a talk with William Ruto
concerning the issue.
Jubilee
coalition flag bearer, however,maintains that his full support remains
with president Uhuru Kenyatta.Ruto's stand concerning having a talk with
opposition leader Raila Odinga is not clear since he has issued no
statement concerning it.
Raila
stated in a gathering that he would like to have Ruto's support in the
coming 2017 elections promising that he would fully support deputy
president William Ruto in 2022 elections after having served one
term.This move was prompted by the overwhelming support that Raila
received in the 2007 elections from the then Rift Valley province.
Well.....let's
just wait and see how it all unfolds in the near future because with
how things are going we can't really predict or give any speculation.

According to the commission Museveni won 60.8 percent of the vote, while opposition candidate Kizza Besigye secured 35.4 percent.

His home was encircled by police in riot gear and media were barred from approaching it. USA yesterday urged one of the Africa’s longest serving president to stop the security services harassing his opponents.
Museveni’s another rival, former Prime Minister Amama Mbabazi has also complained about act, he was put under house arrest but was later released, his spokeswoman said.
“This election was fundamentally flawed and … results were not a reflection of the will of the Ugandan people,” Mbabazi said in a statement.
