President Uhuru Kenyatta’s cousin Kungu Muigai has criticised him for going against the elders’ agreement that saw Deputy President William Ruto back his candidature in the 2013 elections.

Muigai, who had accompanied National Assembly Speaker Justin Muturi,during a meeting with elders at Kabiruini grounds, Nyeri County, said Uhuru and Ruto’s political marriage followed negotiations spearheaded by Kikuyu and Kalenjin elders at Gicheha farm, which is owned by the Kenyatta family.
