Thursday, May 19, 2022-Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party leader, Raila Odinga has suffered a major blow after President Uhuru Kenyatta confirmed that he will not be campaigning for him in August.
Speaking on Wednesday, Jubilee Party Vice-chairman, David
Murathe said Uhuru will not be on the ground for campaigns stating that the
reason is that, the Uhuru has already achieved what he was expected to do.
"Uhuru has set the ball rolling. Everything is in place, but
the President will not be on the ground during the campaign. His absence during
the unveiling of Raila’s running mate does not speak to issues in Azimio but
was calculated to have the aspirant run his campaign,” Murathe stated.
Statehouse officials have also broken their silence on the
matter saying the President's advisers are cautious about dragging him into the
political mud of campaigns as he heads to retirement in August.
