Raila Lied About Uhuru’s Call To Broker Deal With Ruto, Kioni Says
Jubilee Party Secretary General Jeremiah Kioni has dismissed claims that retired President Uhuru Kenyatta brokered the Raila Odinga and President William Ruto truce that resulted in formation of a broad based government.
While addressing a burial ceremony on Monday, opposition leader Raila Odinga claimed it was Uhuru who asked him to reach President Ruto to stabilize the country following the anti-tax protests.
Kioni said Jubilee Party leader Uhuru Kenyatta was not in any way involved or consulted in the events that resulted in the formation of the broad based government.
He further insisted that Kalonzo Musyoka has taken over as leader of the Azimio la Umoja One Kenya Coalition following ODM’s move to work with the government.
Kioni also termed the broad based government arrangement as an illegality saying the constitution did not envisage the majority party working together with the minority party or coalition.
