A rift emerged after prominent businessman Peter Muthoka was last weekend picked to spearhead President Uhuru's re-election bid. But yesterday, leaders turned against one another before President Uhuru and his deputy, William Ruto, with some leaders calling their colleagues 'political brokers'. But Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko took to the podium to tell him off, asking Uhuru to stop engaging in boardroom meetings with some leaders. Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua asked Uhuru to stop engaging brokers but deal with the people through their elected leaders.
