Anne Waiguru Says Uhuru Understands Her Decision to Support Ruto: "He's a Mature Politician"

Waiguru who decamped from Uhuru's Jubilee Party joined the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) in late 2021 and swore her allegiance to the deputy president. 

In an interview with TV47, the Kirinyaga governor, who became the first county boss from the Mt Kenya region to publicly declare support for Ruto, said she also explained to Uhuru her reasons for ditching the ruling party. 

Waiguru said she explained her reasons to the president out of respect and not out of obligation. 

"I did actually. I mentioned the situation and how I understand the political ground and that I would be making a political decision. The explanation was basically out of respect," she said when asked if she told the president about her decision to join UDA.

Further, the female county boss who will be seeking re-election in the August polls said her relationship with the president is still cordial adding he even understands why she took a detour in her political career.
