Suna East MP Junet Mohamed has given his sentiments regarding the looming appointment of Tharaka Nithi Senator Kithure Kindiki as Deputy President William Ruto's running mate.
In an apparent attack at a section of leaders who were eying the running mate seat but are now to lose, Junet said the DP is careful in choosing his running mate because he does not want one with a character like his.
He noted that Ruto is aware that a deputy with attributes like his will be catastrophic in the running of his government.
"A senior lawyer turned UDA Blogger told me this morning as a breaking news that William Ruto has settled on KINDIKI because William Ruto also does not want a deputy president like William Ruto," Junet tweeted.

Reports have emerged that Kindiki is the likely candidate to deputise Ruto in the August 9, polls.
The Tharaka Nithi Senator had a few years ago fashioned himself as a potential running mate of the DP before he went under.
The DP at a rally in Tharaka Nithi told residents to allow him to work with him at the national level.
Others who were billed as potential running mates are Speaker of National Assembly Justin Muturi, Mathira MP Rigathi Gachagua and Kirinyaga Governor Anne Waiguru.
Presidential candidates have until May 16 to present the names of their running mates.
