ODM Senator RICHARD ONYONKA differs with RAILA as he confirms BABA’s role in RUTO’s Government – LOOK!

“ODM is running the government. It is part of the government. 

"As some of you know, Treasury is one of the critical documents of any government in the world.

"Whether it is the Kenyan government or the United States of America government, the Treasury is a key component, a very critical docket of running government affairs. You understand the PSS and other CSs queue at the Treasury,” asserted Ruku.

The controversy surrounding ODM’s involvement in the government has thrown the Opposition into disarray.

The canceled Azimio Council meeting, which was set to address the party’s role in the government, has only added fuel to the fire.

Former President Uhuru Kenyatta, who was supposed to lead the meeting, was forced to switch to a virtual format after ODM members refused to participate.
