Here is an answer to those arguing for increased BBI constituencies: Why not simply GIVE MORE MONEY to those regions that “need more MPs” without burdening Kenyans with more BBI salaries & allowances for additional MPs @WilliamsRuto @MarthaKarua @DavidNdii @OleItumbi @HonKangata

Uhuru Kenyatta’s political career ended yesterday. The 41 who signed letter is >60 % of GEMA legislators. RV has also withdrawn support. If he was PM, it would be a sure no confidence vote. What we have next 18 months is a rogue president, stumbling from pillar to post.
DEVOLUTION Score= 55%.
“Defunct Constitutional Implementation Commission (CIC) should have been taken over by the Law Reforms Commission (LRC). Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA) has not performed as well as when Micah Cheserem was in charge.” - Isaac Ruto #IsaacRutoSpeaks
COUNTY STAFF: “No one is talking of county staff pension, security of tenure of county employees. County Public Service Boards should have been allowed to transfer employees from one county to another without affecting one’s pension and job grade.”- Isaac Ruto
#IsaacRutoSpeaks
“The current economic situation in the country has been acerbated by unnecessary borrowing. There has to be a Loans & Grants Council that would cap borrowings by the government to ensure shared prosperity between the current and future generations.” - Isaac Ruto #IsaacRutoSpeaks
“I cannot speak for President Kenyatta or Dr Ruto. I don’t know the genesis of their disagreement, if any, and would not be surprised to see them working together. A president does not own the government or the succession.”
- Isaac Ruto #IsaacRutoSpeaks
Why I support William Ruto:
“Dr Ruto’s ideas on creating jobs, fixing the economy, creating a conducive environment for industries to thrive, uniting Kenyans & giving them equal opportunities, providing universal health care resonate with mine.”

“We voted for the President not on the basis of his tribe. We voted for Uhuru the politician. His ethnicity did not count.. Let us listen to the presidential candidates & vet them on the basis of their policies & track record.
ETHNICITY IS AN ACCIDENT OF BIRTH” #IsaacRutoSpeaks
“We want allocation to counties increased to 35% +. As CoG chair, I came up with Pesa Mashinani, but had to go slow when my colleagues were harassed by government.
I support changes that will improve Kenya, not BBI political ideologies pushed by some leaders.”
#IsaacRutoSpeaks
“People coalescing around UDA are from different parties, including TSP fronted by Mwangi Kiunjuri, Omingo Magara’s PDP, People’s Empowerment Party (PEP) of Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria & CCM. We have agreed to support Dr Ruto as our presidential candidate.”
#IsaacRutoSpeaks
“We disagreed on resource allocation to counties when Dr Ruto was Intergovernmental Budget ..IBEC, chairman while I headed CoG. It was nothing personal. I also did not agree with him on the dissolution of URP, we were on the right track in an alliance with TNA” #IsaacRutoSpeaks
