Tharaka Nithi Senator Kithure Kindiki has joined Deputy President William Ruto’s powerful inner circle that he is relying on to make him President in the August polls.
While speaking in Tharaka Nithi on Saturday, February 19, DP William Ruto asked the locals if professor Kindiki could join the Ruto inner circle.
“Watu wa Tharaka Nithi, huyu muungwana anaitwa Kindiki anatosha kufanya kazi na mimi na hawa viongozi wengine katika kupanga mambo ya serikali? Anatosha ama hatoshi?” he posed.
Kindiki has so far withdrawn for the Tharaka Nithi gubernatorial race after the incumbent governor defected to UDA.
Kindiki has now joined a section of legislators who are not actively campaigning in their regions but have been assisting the DP with his campaign.
