Uhuru Tells Opposition to Unite or Perish Against Ruto

Former President Uhuru Kenyatta has urged the opposition to unite and defeat President William Ruto in the next general election, warning that disunity will prevent them from achieving their goal. This appeal comes as Kenyans mark the first anniversary of the late Raila Odinga's passing, with concerns rising about the erosion of democratic ideals he championed. The article suggests that former allies and government operatives are undermining these principles that Raila stood for. Meanwhile, Uhuru has also publicly criticized his successor, President Ruto, reminding the Mt Kenya region not to repeat the mistake of electing him in 2022 and warning against a repeat in 2027. At the same time, President Ruto appears to have singled out Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna for frequent public criticism and direct responses, labeling him with various derogatory terms.
