DP Ruto’s paranoia has hit the skies and he is now a very angry with both his boss President Uhuru and Raila Odinga, the people’s president.
Here are the five key points why DP Ruto is angry to a point of calling Raila a conman;
1. It has become clear that Raila Odinga will be on the ballot come 2022 with six regions (former provinces) while DP Ruto is left holding onto his Kalenjin block. Ruto has found it difficult to penetrate Kisii, Western, Cost, Central and Ukambani. DP Ruto had hoped that PM Odinga was to retire BUT the ever looking young Jakom is still in the race. The Kalenjins are also revolting after the Maize scandal that saw elites from the area loot funds meant for farmers

By Uhuru appointing Raila allies like Norman Magaya to parastatals it puts Ruto in an awkward position.
5. Statehouse operatives have earmarked a Raila ally as the next Inspector General of Police to replace Boinnet.
