Kakamega Senator Boni Khalwale has toned down his government criticism since he was kicked out of his plum role as Senate Majority Whip.
Khalwale, unlike before, has now endorsed President William Ruto’s 2027 presidential re-election bid, saying there is no one in the opposition who can dislodge him from the top seat.
Speaking on Sunday, December 7, Khalwale said Kenya has a history of presidents serving their full two terms, and President Ruto is not an exception.
“The country has a history of all our presidents getting a second term. I don’t see why William Ruto should be an exception. The only way he can be an exception is if his politics are done badly. You can be winning, and then you spoil,” said Khalwale.The vocal senator said at the moment, President Ruto remains his choice in the 2027 polls.
“Up to now, President William Ruto has not failed to be my candidate of choice,” Khalwale added.
