It is a big boost to President William Ruto as a prominent politician in the country has declared that she will support him until 2032.
This move comes at a time when political alliances are beginning to shape ahead of the 2027 elections, and it sends a strong message to both Ruto’s supporters and his opponents.
In a statement she made, the politician, who is a governor, revealed that she will not be in the opposition camp.
She explained that she has a strong feeling that the opposition coalition will lose in 2027, and she does not want to be on the side of the losing team.
“I have studied the political environment carefully, and I am confident that President Ruto has the capacity to lead the country successfully. I will not be in a camp that will fail,” she said.
She added that she also has plans to vie for the presidency in the future but confirmed that she will not participate in the 2027 elections. Instead, she will fully support President William Ruto during that period.
“My time to contest will come, but for now, I am fully behind President Ruto. I believe he is the right leader for this country, and I want to contribute to his success,” she stated.
However, she emphasized that President William Ruto is the one fit to rule the country and that the opposition will fail to win the next elections.
She expressed confidence that Ruto’s leadership will continue to shape Kenya positively and that joining his team now is the right choice for her political future.
“The opposition lacks the unity and vision needed to lead Kenya. I am convinced that President Ruto will deliver, and I want to be part of this journey,” she said.
This declaration is expected to strengthen Ruto’s political position and build momentum for his supporters as the country moves closer to the 2027 elections.
