City lawyer Ahmednasir Abdullahi has said that only ODM leader Raila Odinga and Deputy President William Ruto are interested in become president in the next general election.
In a tweet on Saturday, the lawyer said the other people who have expressed interest in the country’s top job are only aiming at the deputy president’s position.
He added that others among them are positioning themselves for ministerial positions after a government is formed in 2022.
“Looking at the state of Presidential campaigns for 2022 only DP Ruto and Hon Raila want to be President come 2022. The rest of the political actors are ALL angling for and/or campaigning for Deputy President or ministerial level positions,” said Ahmednasir.

This comes even as he continues to be a great critic of the former Prime Minister’s bid for the top job in the next general election.
Mr Abdullahi has always publicly declared his dislike for Mr. Odinga’s style of politics, declaring support for Deputy President William Ruto and his United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party.
The lawyer who has in the past represented President Uhuru Kenyatta in presidential election petitions has also turned out to be his biggest critic since the March 9th 2018 handshake with ODM leader Raila Odinga.
He is always quick to poke holes into the president’s moves, as well as pointing out the wrongs he has done that led to the supposed death of the Jubilee party.
