Deputy President William Ruto has in recent days come under heavy fire from top politicians in what is perceived to be a co-ordinated attempt to tame his ‘hustler nation’ narrative.

President Uhuru Kenyatta and the National Super Alliance (NASA) brigade, led by ODM leader Raila Odinga, Wiper’s Kalonzo Musyoka, ANC’s Musalia Mudavadi and Ford Kenya’s Moses Wetang’ula, have alternated in days of an onslaught against Ruto, who is angling to succeed his boss in 2022.
