Some are talking of bullets as others are crying over money. The president was elected to serve all Kenyans, not five, six people,\u201d Ruto stated.<\/p>\n<p>The country\u2019s second in command further stated that the opposing camp started by bothering the President with constitutional amendments but when it hit a dead end, now they want him to arrange them for elections.<\/p>\n<p>The DP also expressed his confidence in how he would win the elections if NASA relations remains unstable.<\/p>\n<p>He also defended why he attends church with donations, saying he wouldn\u2019t have been where he is were it not for God.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy do you have a problem when we go to church? Some of us have no godfathers apart from God,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>ODM leader Raila Odinga is on record, without mentioning names and linking some of the church donations made by politicians to graft.<\/p>\n<p>According to the former premier, donations made in the church are often the proceeds of corruption.<\/p>\n<p>Ruto\u2019s remarks were inspired by the recent fallout in NASA, that saw Kalonzo blame co-principals for not sharing funds equally adding he will not support Odinga a third time.<\/p>\n<p>The spat has seen NASA principals scramble for the president\u2019s attention, in what political experts term as \u2018seeking endorsements\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>However, in a recent interview with Citizen TV, Odinga hinted at a possible super alliance, similar to the NARC in 2002 that saw Kibaki become president, putting an end to the 24-year KANU regime.<\/p>\n<p>The DP had also suggested that the country was stuck as a result of the few men (NASA co-principals).<\/p>\n<p>His sentiments come in the wake of NASA principals being embroiled in a public spat, making accusations against each other.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Kenya.
