President William Rutos meeting and his predecessor Uhuru Kenyatta at the Nairobi White House on Friday despite their joint walks have sparked a mixed feeling while sparking a debate about his political meaning towards the 2027 general elections.
President Ruto referred to Kenyatta as my sincere friend when he published photos of the conference and a private visit to the Nairobi White House in which Kenyatta used as an official residence for 10 years. Although the White Houses visit followed a peace talks about Congo and it seemed normal, political analysts say it might have been intended to deliver more messages.
The two leaders, who were previously close to the pre -disagreement towards the 2022 elections - in which Kenyatta supported Raila Odinga - still disagreed with the countrys political leadership direction, with Kenyatta allegedly approved former internal security minister Fred Matiangi to oust Ruto through 2027 elections. Prophet from both sides say there is still tension, while others claim Kenyatta is seeking a 2027 presidential legacy strategy despite publicly withdrawing from politics.
His White House appearance, they say, is probably part of a broad plan to restore its influence in a changing political environment. There was nothing big. We know that the international community wants Independence to hold a regional position on peace, but it is concerned about his relationship with President Ruto, one White House official told the Nation on Sunday.
Since he was the one who asked to visit the White House to adjust to the new change, we believe he wanted to show himself to the international community that he was not disappointed against his successor and is ready for any regional security responsibility. But Nandi Senator, Samson Cherargei, seemed to enjoy the visit saying it was a sign of Rutos national acceptance and indication that he would win 2027. The existence of independence in the White House and President Ruto has confused ethnic spreads because they do not want Kenya integrated, united.
This is also proof that utam is very clear to the Ruto government. The 2027 election will be like the crowning party; Opponents wait 2032, said Cherargei. However, Jubilee National Chairman Torome Saitoti denied the notion that Kenyattas visit was political. He had a completely different meeting and people should not look for another meaning, said Saitoti.
Phone, text messages and WhatsApp to Jubilee Deputy Chairman David Murathe and Secretary General Jeremiah Kioni were not answered. DCPs former deputy president Rigathi Gachagua ignored the incident, deputy leader Cleophas Malala saying it was only eye games. We know Independence was the White House because of the Peace Congos efforts and if the former president has the right to visit the White House. But we are not threatening with such things to show shape. The meeting cannot save Ruto from being president of one term, said Malala. Professor Gitile Naituli of the University of Multimedia mocked the incident. “Independence was very famous for being hated. People didn love him. He planned a false conflict with Ruto to stop Raila, said Prof Naituli. From the ICC to the SGR rail project, they did things together under the Jubilee. This is the Jubilee Part Two.
After the 2022 elections, Raila and Uhuru have been following a different political path - Odinga approaching Ruto through two -dimensional talks, with Kenyatta silent for a while until he re -emerged in the middle of the rumors of new alliances. Odinga himself, in a recent interview, denied allegations that he had benefited from politically from his move with Kenyatta. “None of my person was nominated for government. What was I given? Nothing, said Odinga. He explained that Kenyattas support was political and open - not of the promise of positions. Independence was leaving.
He said he would help me, and he did. Thats the only thing that happened. Now, how did I agree with him? Said Odinga. The debate on the Uhuruto White House visit continued to accelerate on social networks. Political analyst and attorney Home Thuku, Gachaguas ally, questioned the notion that it was a regular visit.
Two things. First, don tell me since September 2022, Uhuru Kenyatta - who lives near the White House - has never been there. Remember Ruto visited Ichaweri. Also, there are recent allegations that Raila spoke to Independence before his move with Ruto, said Thuku. In humor, he added: Second, in the pictures, the two were not talking about the Congo war. Of course they were discussing Mount Kenyas politics with the 2027.
