Deputy President William Ruto has told off his boss President Uhuru Kenyatta for perennially attacking him.
The DP in a savage response to alleged threats by President Uhuru has fired back saying the president should focus on uniting Kenyans.
Ruto accused the President of sowing seeds of discord with less than 10 days to the August 9, polls.
"Nataka nimuombe rais wetu wa Kenya. Tafadhali rais, you should not be the source of threats in Kenya. Wacha Kutisha wakenya. Kazi yako ni kuhakikisha wakenya wote wakae pamoja.
"Wacha kutuambia tutakujua wewe ni Rais, sisi ndo tulikuchagua na tulikuchagua uwe rais wa kenya. Wacha kututisha, sisi si watu wa kutishwa," he stated.
