Ruto stole my political slogan, Muturi alleges

National Assembly Speaker Justin Muturi has launched a scathing attack against Deputy President William Ruto and people he said were busy accusing other politicians of being corrupt.

The Speaker was addressing mourners at Menyenya Primary School in Nyamira County today during the funeral of Borabu MP Ben Momanyi's brother Benson Nyasimi.

Muturi said Ruto stole his political slogan that he is using as the name for his newly founded Kenya Kwanza Alliance.

"If you would walk along Thika Road, you could see my billboard that read 'Kenya Kwanza' but you see, they have taken it too! Sasa wewe unapora hata slogan yangu?" Muturi wondered.

Muturi said some leaders seeking the presidency have questionable track record.

He accused a section of leaders of hypocrisy for claiming some of their competitors are corrupt.

The Speaker noted that a section of leaders seeking to be elected worked together with those they are accusing of being corrupt.

"They call their former counterparts thieves who stole maize while serving in government, they ate public monies, they sold graves... They should also take responsibility of their colleagues because they must have been thieves too! Why didn't they call them thieves when they were together politically?" Muturi posed.

He used the platform to drum up support for his presidential bid and urged the people make wise choices at the ballot.
