Kapseret Member of Parliament Oscar Sudi.Kapseret MP Oscar Sudi, on Sunday appeared to respond to claims by Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua that some leaders from the Rift Valley are behind his alleged fallout with President William Ruto. Oscar Sudi speaking during a church function, Sudi, a close ally of Ruto, said leaders should shun divisive and tribal politics, and at the same time respect each.

The Kapseret MP Oscar Sudi particularly pointed out at the Saturday meeting held by Gachagua and a section of leaders allied to him in Kesses, Uasin Gishu county, where the second in command castigated some leaders close to the president for what he said is causing bad blood between him and his boss.

The DP also told the said leaders to concentrate on their constituencies, something Sudi has now responded to.

“You cannot control where I go. If we all stayed in our respective constituencies then we would not be in government. We had to fly all over the country to ask Kenyans to elect this government. I am not someone you can threaten. I have been threatened enough and this does not move me,” Sudi responded.

He said he will continue to hold Harambees to fundraise for churches, as he inherited this from Ruto when he was deputy president.

“You know I got this thing from Ruto. He passed it to me because now he is concentrating on national matters. So I have to continue doing this in any part of the country,” Sudi added.

The latest exchange comes after claims of a fallout between President Ruto and DP Gachagua, especially after the latter went missing from key state functions for a week, only to resurface in Nyeri where his allies claimed of mistreatment towards Gachagua.
