Deputy President Kithure Kindiki has weighed in on the growing political calls for his boss, President William Ruto, to serve only one term as the 2027 elections approach.
Speaking during a consultative meeting with grassroots leaders in Tharaka Nithi County on Wednesday, Kindiki dismissed claims by political opponents that President Ruto would not secure re-election.
The Deputy President stated that he is unbothered by growing speculation that Ruto's tenure will be limited to a single five-year term. ''President William Ruto's objective is not to serve for two terms, it is to use the time that God gave him in office to bring transformative programmes in one, two, three areas and then leave,'' Kindiki asserted.
