Deputy President William Ruto’s biography and political history have neither a principle nor a philosophy on revolution. This is a rare and scarce character in Ruto who purports to revolutionise Kenyan politics for the benefit of the hustler nation. I leave it to Kenyans to judge whether Ruto possesses any of these qualities. The place of birth and status of parents are critical in shaping the thinking of the revolutionary. By birth and family, Ruto qualifies but his political privilege alienates him from the suffering of the poor.
