We Are Ready To Weclome DP Ruto, Says Lead Organizer Hon Banda
All plans are being finalized to welcome Deputy President William Ruto for a major fundraising event in Kitui on Thursday to support bodaboda associations.
This has
been revealed by the Coordinator of Hustler Nation Movement in Kitui
County Hon Moses Banda who is the lead organizer of the event together
with others.
"It is
true we will be hosting the DP on Thursday. He is coming purely for a
fundraising to support boda boda operators in the county in order to
give their lives an economic head start" Banda told our desk in an
exclusive interview.
The
DP is expected to address a huge gathering in Kitui town before
flying to Mwingi town later in the afternoon for a similar event.
During
his visit, DP Ruto will also be educating the masses on a section of
toxic proposals in the BBI report that, if not amended, might make him
and his brigade campaign against the document.
Hon
Banda said it was hypocritical for some leaders to pretend to be
supporting the BBI report yet the president had opened a forum for
Kenyans to read it first.
"During
the launch of the BBI, we were told by the principals to read and make further
suggestions on the report but we are now seeing some pro handshake
politicians drumming support for it even before Kenyans have finished
reading! I smell a rat" Banda said.
The
Kitui Central leading parliamentary contestant for 2022 noted that BBI
was meant to cure the problem of toxic political competition where the
winner takes it all, resulting to deadly political violence.
Hon
Banda lamented that the BBI was proposing to create a monster president
with unguarded power and authority to even hire and fire the Prime
Minister and his deputies without reference to anyone.
"How does that cure the electoral violence that we face every election year" wondered Banda.
DP
Ruto has been critical on some provisions of the BBI report such as the
one that gives the president veto power to appoint the judiciary
ombudsman and also appoint cabinet ministers from outside the National
Assembly.
"These are
critical issues we need to point out to our people. We are not opposed
to BBI but some proposals must be deleted/amended. In addition, the
agenda of the common mwananchi (hustler) must be central to the national
dialogue" reiterated Banda.
