Ruto intensifies attacks on Uhuru, labels him opposition sponsor

President William Ruto has intensified his political attacks against retired President Uhuru Kenyatta, labeling him an opposition sponsor. This escalates an ongoing political dispute between the two former allies. Opposition leaders Kalonzo Musyoka, Rigathi Gachagua, and Dr. Fred Matiang'i have accused Ruto of unfairly targeting Kenyatta. Meanwhile, violence marred Gachagua's Nakuru tour as an opposition funding row escalated. Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen has pledged that the government will uphold peace and security as the nation gears up for the 2027 General Election.
