No amount of humiliation and intimidation will make Deputy President William Ruto resign, allies of the second in command stated on Monday. President Uhuru Kenyatta’s arrival at the Kenya Wildlife Service Law Enforcement Academy in Manyani sparked a fresh debate Ruto’s humiliation within government. The President was received by Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiangi, in the presence of the Deputy President in an apparent breach of protocol. Mathira MP Rigathi Gachagua said Ruto will remain the Deputy President until the end of Uhuru’s term. “We know there are people doing this hoping that the Deputy President will resign so that another person can be given that position,” he stated.
