Tuju Speaks On Alleged Plot To Impeach DP Ruto
The ruling Jubilee Party has refuted claims that there are plans to impeach Deputy President William Ruto.
Jubilee Secretary-General Raphael Tuju said that at no time had the party held discussions to plan Ruto’s ouster. He was responding to reports that Lugari MP Ayub Savula planned to table an impeachment motion against the DP as soon as parliament resumes sittings on Tuesday.
Last week, Savula claimed that the impeachment motion has the support of President Uhuru Kenyatta and ODM leader Raila Odinga.
The ANC lawmaker said the motion is in the signature collection stage, with 126 Jubilee MPs appending signatures in support and another 107 from the NASA coalition being sought to append their signatures before parliament fully resumes session.
