Outgoing president Uhuru Kenyatta’s on September 7 said that voters who rejected the Azimio la Umoja coalition presidential candidate Raila Odinga and voted for Dr. William Ruto will start crying in three months.
He said this as he continued to bemoan the election of Dr. Ruto as the fifth president of Kenya against his wishes. Uhuru, who is the chairman of the Azimio la Umoja coalition, had been backing former prime minister Raila for the top post.
“Those who are smiling right now will be crying in three months,” he said. “Yes we have lost, but let’s stand together because at the end of it, the truth will be known. Politics is an interesting game and a lot of things will change within three months.”

Uhuru added that he will be embracing the opposition side and will assume former Prime Minister Raila Odinga to be his leader.
“We must be prepared to be the strongest opposition and diligently discharge our duty. Get it, take it or leave it. I will be a proud citizen who will join my leader Raila, waiting for direction to be given. I will stand with him and I know what he has gone through,” he said.
My president it’s good you have said Kenyans not a section or part of this country. You will remain my president as long as am a live. President full of peace and dedicated to development and the good will of this nation, irrespective of what others leads are saying or doing at your behind.
