Nyeri Town MP Ngunjiri Wambugu says Central Kenya voters and leaders have not submitted a list of demands to DP William Ruto hence no negotiation took place.


The MP added that the list of demands was generated by Ruto's associates in the Tangatanga team of Jubilee.


The development comes because the MPs have committed themselves to Ruto and have been fighting for him.


“They have told us and everybody that as far as they are concerned, DP Ruto is the best candidate for 2022,” he said.


MP Wambugu mocked the group of MPs saying creating a list of demands was taking the region’s people for a ride as there is no way one can give demands to someone they support.


He was reacting to media reports that Mt Kenya MPs had decided to open consultations with DP Ruto in switch for their political support ahead of the 2022 elections.


“It is quite embarrassing for them to be out here telling us that they now want to negotiate. Who are they negotiating on behalf of?” Wambugu asked.


“If Ruto for example refuses to listen to their demands, what are they going to do to him? Are they going to leave him?”


“They did not need to consult as they believed that he already has the region’s support.”

“If the region is firmly behind Ruto, what are they negotiating for? You only negotiate for something that you do not have,” he said.
