At least For Once I Won’t Be Blamed For Stealing COVID-19 Money, Ruto
Deputy President William Ruto has sarcastically responded to a news article by the standard that labeled him as a spectator in the current government saying he won’t be blamed for the current scandal where Sh43B meant for coronavirus pandemic is said to have been misappropriated.
“At least least for once it won’t be possible to be blamed for what someone said “started in Wuhan as a virus, landed in Italy as a pandemic and now in Kenya as a multi-billion shilling corruption enterprise”. Wacha niendelee kama spectator. ISORAIT.“
Ruto who has often taken hits for most of the mega scandals that have been rocking jubilee government seems to be having a fields play with this. Ruto who recently criticized the state of abuse of power in the arrests of senators and also daring the so called deep state from blocking his presidential bid.

Ruto’s has been silencing most of the time in his Karen home where he receives guests but no official duties. His latest statement could easily be taken as a hit at his boss, who’s currently running the show and placing the blame of Covid scandal at his doorstep.
