RAILA ODINGA hints at sending DP RUTO to jail over corruption if Elected as President

Azimio-One Kenya Alliance candidate, Raila Odinga, has alluded to prosecuting Deputy President William Ruto for taking part in acts of corruption over the last 10 years he has filled in as the second in command.

In a social post on Thursday, Raila Odinga, through his spokesman Prof Makau Mutua, said Ruto isn’t focused on fighting corruption in his manifesto and might be the first Kenyan to go to prison after Azimio forms the government in August.

In his statement, Ruto had said he won’t politicize war on corruption and will allow institutions mandated to prosecute the corrupt and jail the individuals involved in the vice.

However, Makau said Ruto is a charlatan since he is exceptionally corrupt and in the event that he allows institutions to work he will be imprisoned multiple times.

“This is very RICH coming from DP @WilliamsRuto.Mr Ruto HIMSELF should’ve been PROSECUTED more than 100 times. That day is coming — very soon,” Makau wrote on his Twitter page.
