The bigwig and Ruto do not see eye to eye, Here Is Why

President William Ruto on Friday unveiled half of his Cabinet after ODM leader Raila Odinga appeared to develop last-minute cold feet on the government of national unity. Sources intimated to the Star that all was set until Thursday night but Raila is said to have met a former political bigwig who reportedly dissuaded him from joining Ruto.

It remains unclear whether Raila will proceed with the deal, especially amid the sustained pressure from within his ODM party to abandon the idea.

Some leaders have warned the former PM that he risks ruining his legacy as a pro-people leader by accepting to join “a sinking” government.

Sources said that on Friday morning, Raila asked Ruto to give him more time to consult.

In the changes, President Ruto seeks to reinstate six Cabinet Secretaries who were among the 21 he sacked recently to quell anti-government protests.
