Ruto's Counter-Strategy Should Uhuru Declare Raila his Preferred Successor

Mt Kenya holds numerous records which will undoubtedly take other regions decades to overrun. Hitherto, the region has produced three presidents who have cumulatively ruled over thirty years.

With the country rolling towards its third general elections, the region will once again be on the limelight for obvious reasons. Uhuru Kenyatta is leaving and as expected, the region has something in store for us.

Political theorists and harbingers have come up with antagonistic conclusions of the path the region will take ahead of 2022. Some are of the belief that Jomo's son will unapologetically throw his gauntlets behind Jakom, the ever glowing camaraderie between UhuRaila supports this hypothesis.

Assuming the afore stated theory comes to pass, what will happen to William Ruto who had pegged his hopes on Uhuru and mountain region? Will he strangle himself? Definitely not.

Of the ingenious observations the man from Sugoi made was his apt realization that clouds had changed this literally meant the planned pattern had been tampered with, so? He reprogrammed himself.

UhuRaila ticket may surmount to nothing thanks to the confusion handshake has created in Uhuru's turf. Once a stronghold now a battlefield, Mt Kenya has split into two antagonistic fragments, Ruto has managed to plant seeds of discord in the hub and recent poll results have affirmed the claim.

New political parties are blossoming rivaling Jubilee Party, Governors among them Kiraitu Murungi has promised to jump ships for JP is no longer functional and when politicians take that decision, they will likely join a budding, more relevant party. Could that party be UDA? Maybe!

UhuRaila affair is undoubtedly barren, Ruto has schemingly penetrated Uhuru's command centre, corrupted files and by the time the outgoing president presses command button to uplift his elder brother, he will come to a bitter realization that a malware long ago spoiled his command centre, that's politics.
